If I had to describe myself in 3 words they would be Ambitious, Diligent, and Inventive.

I am a Sophomore Mechanical Engineering major at George Fox University. I am from Davis California (near Sacramento). I like to consider myself inventive because this summer I co-founded a logo clothing company called TROPIX.

Growing up in an engineering family, I decided to keep the path going while keeping an open mind to the business economic side of things. My family are predominantly engineers with the exception of my grandfather who had his PHD. in Nuclear chemistry.

I like to creatively build and craft, anything from cardboard helmets for fun all the way to fabricating fibre glass parts for a friends car.

As far back as I can remember, I have always wanted to be an astronaut. I am hoping that with a mechanical engineering degree, and then potentially trying for masters in aerospace/aeronautical engineering that one day I will be able to not only experience Zero gravity but work with it as well.
