Experiences
Here is my academical background as well as some achievements I feel have improved my overall character.
Educations
University of California, San Diego
September, 2019 - Present
Initially accepted for Structural Engineering, I learned advanced physics and mathematical applications toward the creation of buildings, columns and bridges. This also allowed me to physically analyze other things such as toys or other materials like wood, metal or plastic. I learned to use software's like SolidWorks that allowed me to create or design anything inside of a 3D plane. This skill has still been useful I am able to 3D print using this software. In my second year is when I decided that I wanted to be in Interdisciplinary Computing and the Arts major. I wanted to learn coding but also be tide to my likings of creating and designing art. Now I know how to code in Java, C++, HTML, CSS and P5. Furthermore, I learned to use Adobe apps for filming in photography such as Premiere Pro, Photoshop, and Illustrator.
Samuel F.B. Morse High School
September, 2015 - June, 2019
The advance courses such as AP Art History and World History were how I got my interest of art and how I developed my themes of the universe so young. Taking world history got me to think very philosophically of how the world works as I had learned the actions and consequences of historical events. Empires falling, the influence of art on people, and things like propaganda made me analyze our system but also reflect on the human mind. I felt the need to explore these tendencies through art so other could also engage with the role we have of humans in our universe. I also took architectural classes as I was still pursuing an engineering major.
Achievements
Cross Country Captain
September, 2016 - June, 2017
In my sophomore year of high school I wanted to join a sport but I wasn't too sure which. Sounds too simple, but I was fast, I liked running, so cross country was the choice. Cross country was one of the hardest sports I've ever done though. It helped me mentally to be motivated to do 'hard' challenges. I had a blast. The captain was a senior so at the end of the year it would be sad to see a generation leave. That summer after they graduated, we still had daily runs, but it was also training for some of us to see who would be a good captain for the team. I wasn't expecting the role but ultimately the captain and other members of the team approved me to be the team captain of cross country when I was a Junior. This was another challenge in itself as I had to focus on other teammates run scores to see how they could improve. I was managing the community in a sense, had to figure out days for practice and help my teammates improve in their runs. I was there pushing people forward. This ultimately improved me overall in leadership skills but also communication as we were a team.
