This is my Third year of high school and I'm currently taking Algebra 2 which is a major part of engineering, Since many aspects of engineering require Algebra y for constructing designs, analyzing and solving technical problems. Algebra teaches me about how to solve very diffuicult word problems and properties for achieving my goals of designing Projects. My parents own a pool cleaning business and over the  summer I worked with them and the majority of pools have this pool cleaner robot that goes all around the pool picking up any junk that's in it. The robot is called a Polaris and throughout the summer I  would find problems like if the wheel wasn't spinning or it wasn't picking up any trash. I would disarm the robot and find the problem and add anything that has been snapped. I learn how to disarm parts and put those same or new parts back on exactly where they would go, majority of the time I worked on those robot, they would work perfectly afterwards. This has shown me that I was able to find solutions of the robots and getting them back on track, which is a major thing for engineering since mostly when I'm testing a prototype and it doesn't work, I will already now how to disarm it and rebulid back again and find the solutions of the problems.

Currently I'm playing soccer for Great Mills High school  Varsity. In soccer we focus on communication and sportsmanship with one another and also being part of the team has showed me leaderships skills, to be a role model for my  teammates and for those who watch me play. Soccer has taught me that their will be tough situations where I just have to keep my head up and also how it affects my teammates which is where I give them all my support no matter the situation. Over the summer I worked in my parents pool cleaning business which has taught how to be responsible and how I have to be able to have many responsibilities and get them done fast and right.
