Hello! My name is Gabi Angryk, and I am a junior at Walton High School in the STEM Engineering Academy. I have a strong interest in engineering, especially electrical engineering, and I also enjoy exploring computer science and data analysis. However, I also have a strong interest in business, law, and medicine. I like engineering because it allows me to solve problems and be creative while using my skills in math, CAD, and organization. This portfolio highlights the engineering projects I’ve completed since the beginning of my freshman year, showcasing the skills and knowledge I’ve developed through hands-on experience and problem-solving.

Save money and make plans with friends
My Short term goals:
Take as many opportunities as possible
I followed up with my action steps by joining three clubs this year: the Computer Science Honors Society, UNICEF, and the Graphic Arts Club. I also became deeply involved in multiple areas of robotics, including presentation, strategy, build, programming, and outreach, while leading our new elementary school robotics team initiative. Additionally, I learned app development through participating in the InVenture Prize competition, where I qualified for the state level, and I applied to the Governor’s Honors Program for Electrical and Computational Engineering, also qualifying for state. All of these opportunities have helped me grow my skills, expand my interests, and support my long-term goals. I will continue to strive for this goal; however, I will not list it as there are more specific goals I would like to have each semester.
Earn the best grades possible - all from 87-100
This semester, I focused on balancing three new AP classes along with more rigorous Spanish and engineering courses, while also adding chemistry and computer science to my schedule. Despite the increased workload, I remained actively involved in robotics by contributing to our presentation, strategy, build, programming, and outreach departments. I did not update or change this short-term goal because it remains a priority for me and continues to support my personal and professional growth, regardless of the career path I ultimately choose. Additionally, I achieved this goal.
Find 1 hobby that I can do by myself
I achieved this goal, though I’ve realized that many of the hobbies I enjoy require other people, so I can’t always do them as often as I’d like. Over this semester, I’ve learned the importance of taking more time for myself and doing things I enjoy outside of school and extracurriculars. I’ve started reading books again, and I love watching movies—whether it’s with friends and family or by myself.
My Long term goals:
Internship at NASA
I am currently unable to get the internship due to my age, but I’m hopeful that I’ll be able to pursue it in the summer of 2025.
Learn something everyday
I am always learning, and this semester I have prioritized exploring all of my interests. Through my first short term goal, I have had many opportunities to learn and grow in new fields and skills I would not have before. I have become a better presenter, developed my technical skills further, as well as become more involved in my community and school.
Travel to 6 countries by 20
I am currently babysitting to save up money for trips that I would like to take in the future.
My Short term goals:
Start learning about the Raspberry Pi - 1 project
I followed up with my action steps by posting a video documenting my journey of learning Raspberry Pi and sharing a tutorial to help others who might want to pursue the same path. That video is currently the second most viewed on my YouTube channel. I haven’t updated or changed this short-term goal because I still plan to continue developing this skill over the summer and into the fall semester of 2025.
Earn the best grades possible - all between 87-100
This semester I focused on balancing travel with my robotics commitments while taking on several new responsibilities within the team. I contributed to our Impact presentation, analyzed performance data, scouted other teams, and helped direct our first-ever rookie elementary school robotics team. I did not update or change this short-term goal because it remains a priority for me and will support my growth regardless of the career path I choose to pursue. Additionally, I achieved this goal.
Read at least one book each month
I kept up with this goal, especially over break. However, during particularly busy months like April, I realized the importance of prioritizing my grades, robotics responsibilities, hobbies, and personal well-being. As a result, I adjusted this goal to focus on posting three new YouTube videos, which feels more manageable and better supports my overall goals.
My Long term goals:
Internship at NASA
I am currently unable to get the internship due to my age, but I’m hopeful that I’ll be able to pursue it in the summer of 2025.
Learn something everyday
I am always learning, and this semester I’ve prioritized exploring all of my interests. Through robotics and Girl Scouts, I’ve gained experience in presentation and budgeting, which has allowed me to explore my interest in business. Additionally, through the Cobb Youth Commission and conversations with my robotics mentor, I’ve had the opportunity to speak with lawyers and learn more about the legal field. This summer, I’ll be working at Grady through TELP to further explore my interest in medicine.
Travel to 6 countries by 20
I was very fortunate to travel to Houston again this past April for the World FIRST Robotics Competition, and hopefully this summer I will have the opportunity to travel around the state. I’m excited to travel and learn about different places so I can start thinking about where I might want to live in the future.
