Plans
I plan on attending the United States Coast Guard Academy to pursue mechanical engineering degree while also being a student athlete on the USCGA swim team. My desire to serve others has developed over time, from community service as a young boy to achieving my Eagle Scout rank. The leadership, respect, values, and achievements I learned from Boy Scouts have naturally led me to the Coast Guard. Ultimately, I want to serve my country as a Lieutenant Commander in the United States Coast Guard.
