| What is your most memorable childhood experience? | My most memorable childhood experience was going to an airshow when I was in kindergarten. It was my first time ever seeing a plane and it was the first event that sparked my interest in aviation. This is also why I want to use my computer science degree to pursue a career in the aerospace/defense industry. |
| What immediate family member do you closely identify with and why? | I would identify myself closest with my brother because we both share similar hobbies and are planning on following a similar career path. We both enjoy working out and playing basketball. He is currently working as a software engineer, and I am working to become one. |
| What character traits do you admire in an individual? | I admire hard work, humility, and respect. I admire individuals who work hard, who are humble even though they have many achievements, and who give and demand respect. |
| What is the funniest thing ever to happen to you? | On my 5th grade class trip there was a rope over a pit of mud. The goal was to swing to the other side without falling in. When it was my turn, I slipped and fell face first in the mud. |
| If time and money were not an issue, where would you travel and why? | I would travel to Europe because I am a history buff, and I would be able to visit the many museums and historical sights. Europe is a diverse continent with many unique countries that are distinct from each other. I also enjoy Italian food. |
| When and if you ever have children, what would you like to pass on to them? | I would like to pass on the importance of having a good family and circle of friends. I would teach them how to achieve and set goals and the importance of hard work. |
