<span style="font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Cheyne Westerman is currently a student at Kettering University in Flint, Michigan. &nbsp;His major is mechanical engineering. &nbsp;However, he is really more passionate about his concentration and minors, rather than his major. &nbsp;He is undertaking a concentration in Innovation & Entrepreneurship, which is geared towards engineering. &nbsp;His dual minors are: 1) Business; &nbsp;2) Innovation & Entrepreneurship (which is geared towards business). &nbsp;He believes that being a mechanical engineering is so valuable because it is arguably the broadest of engineering degrees and he believes that to work in any position in a company which sells products, one must be able to understand the core ingredient of success: the product itself. &nbsp;His real goal in life is to land an upper management position at a great company or to create his own company with a group of intelligent individuals which brings great value to target customers. &nbsp;<o:p></o:p></span>
