Plans
Ever since childhood, machinery has facisntated me. It was crystal clear that engineer was the key to my future endeavors. I yearned to be one of the bright minds who design the instruments that will inspire many—just as they inspired me. From then on, I have stayed true to my path as I continue to my college education with the plan to pursue mechanical engineering. With this degree, I want to create a more sustainable future, not just for Pittsburgh, but for the world.
