PROFI LE

I am hard-working, dedicated, motivated, and career-driven. I focus on the details, but do not lose focus of the main
objective. I view everything as a challenge, or a puzzle, and regardless of the magnitude, I never give up on making
the pieces fit. I bring honesty, integrity, and a passion for anything I do to the table, and refuse to accept anything
from myself other than excellence.

SKILLS & ABI LITIES

Leadership

Through my travels in life, I have had the honor of serving in the United States Marine Corps. This experience gave me a
crash course in leadership, and enabled me to take the leadership role when necessary. I also acquired the skills that allowed
me to assess which leadership role was most suitable for the specific situation and individual.

Activities

In 2012, I participated in the College Aerospace Scholars Program, and attended a 3 day conference at NASA in Houston.
There I was elected Project Head, and efficiently led my team to success.

In 2013, I took part in a week long program called T4, which entailed shadowing a high school math teacher for a week, and
taking on the responsibilities that an educator bears on a day to day basis.
