About
I am currently a very devoted Civil Engineering student at Minnesota State University, Mankato. I picked this field of study because it is what I have a passion and talent for. Ever since I was young I have always loved to build things and I did this with just about everything I could get my hands on, from Lego bricks to recyclable materials like plastic and cardboard. I have been obsessed with creating things for as long as I can remember so being in this major is a dream come true. I will use this degree to innovate and revolutionize techniques used in building modern day structures by making them more environmentally, cost effective and disaster resistant. I posses leadership qualities such as patience, boldness and charisma which coupled with my excellent academic records helped me become student body president in high school. I am also a ferocious debater and public speaker, this is something I did all through high school and have continued in my higher education. In my leisure I write and perform spoken word poetry.
