About me
I am currently a Sophomore at Embry-Riddle studying Aeronautical-Sciences. My goal is to graduate and become a pilot with Delta Airlines in the near future.
Originally I grew up wanting to be a mechanical engineer. My father is a civil engineer, so I was always around his projects as a kid. seeing what he was able to do with some wood, a hammer, and some nails always impressed me. I learned a lot when I helped him build our fence and shed. Ever since then, I was determined to learn about engineering and the likes. As I grew up I realized I wanted to keep engineering as a hobby so that it wouldn’t get tiresome, so I decided to pursue a different endeavor.
I was given the option to attend flight school and ever since my first flight, I cannot imagine myself doing anything else as my career. With the unveiling of the new Boeing 777x, I am even more excited to enter the career of aviation. My end goal is to fly a 777x internationally one day.
The project
I bring a lot to the project, but I hope to take a lot away from it. I’m excited about learning about how to solve something, and the way to convey that information to others.

Repair Experience
My repair Experience for vehicles comes from my 1995 Jeep Rio Grande. I love that thing and I am very proud of it! I bought it with a ton of problems and 240.000 miles.
I replaced the head gasket which was a long process of trial and error. I changed the entire exhaust system starting from the headers to the base. It had a plethora of exhaust leaks. I changed out the clutch master cylinder which I dropped the plunger into the bell housing, so I had to drop the whole transmission (What a pain). I replaced the suspension system and gave it an inch of clearance. I replaced the entire steering rack and tie-rod ends to end the awful right drift.
I built my computer as a graduation gift to myself. I bought all the parts needed and built it from the ground up. It Includes an i5 8600K processor and an Asus ROG 1080. This was a fun project that taught me a lot about how a computer works and the hardware it takes to run it. The feeling of accomplishment when it booted up for the first time is a feeling like no other!
