Henriette Zombori Henriette Zombori is a recent graduate from Brooklyn Technical High School and is now a freshman at University of Albany—Buffalo. Double-majoring in Civil Engineering and Environmental & Geo Science, Henriette is pursuing her dream of becoming a geotechnical engineer. “I’ve been in a scouting association ever since I was 10, so I’ve been obsessed with nature and just being outdoors,” says Henriette. Later in high school, she grew an interest in structures and creating buildings that are also beneficial to the environment, so she combined the two passions when choosing her two majors.
