I am interested in working for an energy company after I graduate. I especially am interested in green energy production. Solar power, wind energy, and thermoelectric energy are products that I want to manage and develop.

Graduate school interests

I want to earn my master's degree in mechanical engineering. I feel that there is much to learn in the energy field and I want to learn more through research. After earning this advanced degree, I will be in a better position to work in a management and leadership position.
