should i become an engineer?

i am an 18 year old female who is starting college in a few months. i am interested in engineering but i am not sure if its the right career for me. i am very good at hands-on problem solving and i’m the type of person that can do anything myself, like fixing something wrong with my car or building furniture. when i was a kid, i made a working vending machine out of cardboard. i’ve been very crafty my entire life and i would really enjoy making a career out of it. would engineering be the right thing to major in? and what type of engineering? i’m also concerned about being a female in engineering just because i feel like it is a very male-dominated career.
