Plans
I’m planning on majoring in Biomedical Engineering with a special focus on Neuroengineering and Rehabilitation Engineering. I’m hoping to eventually enter the field as a prosthetics engineer. There are many people in the world that have lost a part of themselves, or have been missing a piece of themselves from birth, preventing them from doing things most people would consider trivial. Through prosthetics engineering, I want to help give them back a piece of themselves they have been missing.
