About

I am currently a Mechanical Engineering Student at Montgomery College in Rockville, MD. But will be attending Penn State University in the Spring Semester. I am studying to be a mechanical engineer and be an entrepreneur. I grew up in the suburban and urban towns in the DC area of Maryland from Olney to Gaithersburg and ending in Germantown, MD. My mom works at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda. Maryland. I have grown up in an extremely diverse community by race, religion, social beliefs. I was raised by my mom for my whole life, she's everything to me and she's my best friend. I graduated from Seneca Valley High and was part of the National Honor Society from my last two years and through high school, I am the first student from my school to have graduated and completed the PLTW Program (Project Lead The Way). My ultimate goal is to explore the world and change the way we educate the next generation.
