Summary

I am an extremely passionate person who loves to be involved. As an analytical thinker and problem solver, I feel that pursuing a degree in engineering is the perfect fit for me. I have always been extremely drawn to the natural world and I love to be outside, which is one of the factors drawing me towards environmental engineering.
