I became an engineer to help turn the wheel of progress and push the boundaries of what's possible. The state of the art in STEM is a fascinating and exciting landscape, and I hope to explore and expand this landscape as a fanatical inquisitor and problem-solver. In these early years of my career, I've made a tremendous effort to accelerate the growth of my knowledge and skillset. I see to it that I fulfill all "Course Outcomes" in my education, gaining a firm grasp on every subject matter I study. In my professional life, I've proved my ability to quickly learn and adapt to solve any problem at hand. Hence, I've been handed numerous complex projects which I've solved in a timely and cost-effective manner. While I take great pride in the accomplishments I've made, I recognize that I've barely scratched the surface of my profession. I'm eager to learn and grow more, and the prospects ahead excite me immensely. I will carry this enthusiasm into any position I come to hold as a team player with a "can do"-attitude and a ferocious work-ethic. "The struggle of today is the strength of tomorrow. The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph." — Thomas Paine
