Objective

The opportunity for me to work at the Air Force Research Laboratory (Rome Research Site) jumps at me like a golden opportunity. Being able to partake in an Air Force leadership environment during real-time, and simultaneously having the ability to further my learning from an engineering perspective is undoubtedly a great way to expand both my learning and my ROTC experience.

Work Experience

Skills

I'm a quick learner and very hands-on. Task oriented and time conscious. People person, and inquisitive.

Computer Skills: MS Suite, Basic Computing, Matlab, CATIA

Foreign Language Skills: English, Spanish, Mandarin Chinese (traditional)

Additional Information

I'd like to say that my GPA is a reflection on several examinations. I feel that given throughout my life I've been given many opportunities, and I make the most of them. Often, I am told that I quickly adapt to change, and appear to be a quick learner.

Study Abroad: I was immersed in Taiwanese culture throughout my High School time. Completed grades 7 through 12 at what is now IBSH, in Hsinchu, Taiwan.

Interests

I'd like to start with my current ROTC commitment and work back to the basics. ROTC to me is more than just a commitment while in school. ROTC has allowed me to develop as a person, and moreover, as a professional adult. My life long dream has been to become an Air Force pilot, and from what I've learned, it's not just about being a textbook example, but rather to have the motivation and perseverance to overcome obstacles that come along the way.

Within ROTC, I've helped the local community here in Prescott by volunteering at Food-drive events, posting of the Colors, and other like events.

Aside from ROTC, my current activities include sports such as tennis, soccer, hiking, skiing, and mountain biking. I learned to play the saxophone and piano through high school; performing in several of my fathers' company end-of-year parties.
