About

In college, I hope to major in electrical engineering. I’ve always had a passion for STEM; I’ve considered many different careers and fields of study, such as biology, chemistry, pharmacy, and even zoology. But with much time for introspection and reflection, I realized that electrical engineering is my true passion. I have a few electricians on my dad's side of the family, and it naturally rubbed off on me. I like knowing how things work and operate; the things that hold everything together. From trains, to speakers, even the lights that are currently in our house; those things interest me the most. Plus, electrical engineering has a lot of math skills involved, and I particularly like math. After I graduate, I plan to pursue a career as an electrical engineer.
