It should be noted; I was the varsity quarterback of my school’s football team as a freshman and a sophomore.

I have become an annual counselor at Children’s Hospital Heart Camp. It is a camp for younger children with heart disease. I will be attending PITT (main campus) as a Pre-Med. I want to be a pediatric cardiologist.

After high school, I plan on attending college for engineering. I adore my math and science classes at school and I try to be involved in the most activities relating to them. I was inspired to become an engineer after being taught by my sophomore geometry teacher. She is a former engineer and has had the biggest impact on my STEM education. I aspire to be just like her one day. Right now, my “dream” school that I am working towards is Carnegie Mellon University.

Since my youth, I have always aspired to be an Engineer. As I have grown up, my simplistic desire to build and create has transformed into a passion for Mechanical and Computer Engineering. In my time taking advanced courses at school, serving as a leader on my FIRST FTC Robotics team, and attaining the BSA rank of Eagle Scout, I have discovered my desire to help other people through my gifts of leadership and knowledge. In my future, I will be an inspiring human by helping to improve the world.
