I am a 21 year old third-year Missouri S&T student studying Electrical and Computer Mechanical Engineering. I am
from St. Charles, MO where I attended Duchesne High School. During my four years there, I was
a member of the Cross Country and Track teams (and I was quite amazing might I add). I have temporarily given up my
God-given abilities of runnin' fast and am currently involved with Engineers Without Borders at MST, where I do non-running things.
I have two sisters; Sara who is a fifth grade teacher, and Kim who is a [i dont know?].
I'm weird, thats what you'll notice first about me… but there’s more to me than meets the eye! I like Seinfeld, The Office, Google, kool-aid, photography, music, design (web, 3D modeling, and just in general...), inspiring stories, travel, nature, the world, life...
I am not sure exactly what I want to do with my life, but I can't wait to see what God has in store for me.
Thing to do before I die:
- World Domination!
- Get through school. Work for myself!
- Build my own house from the ground up in a secluded place out in the
country, with a lake, a waterfall, a mountain... - FLY. Kinda like this. Or be Superman, whichever is easier.
- See the world... (and all the people of the world - hear their stories, tell their stories)
- Make the whole World happy!
- Create my "One for One" Organization.
- Write something so unbelievably crap yet its so abstract and obscure that it garners
critical attention and it becomes a best seller, making me a billionaire! - Pull a Kyle MacDonald.
- ...This last one is up to YOU, my friends and family... ;)
Make the World Happy...
I thrive on the happiness of others...
Whenever I have been feeling down lately, the only thing that has helped me have been others, my friends and family, not myself (i just make myself angry) ;)
Question: Why the world? Why not a certain someone, or a group that's close to you?
Someone once told me "I can't save the world"....
-Even if someone tells you something is impossible, why stop there and limit yourself. You need to try and find out for yourself. It sure doesn't hurt to try.
("the sky is the limit..." actually i wanna go into space one day.. sooo, there is no limit for me;)
-Why shoot for a just one piece of the puzzle, when you can put the whole thing together? I see my friends and family as the borders and corner pieces of the puzzle, then once that is all together, they help me build the rest of it...
Basis:
Golden Rule (Ethic of Reciprocity)
Pay it Forward
my future organization
For EVER I have been trying to think of a way to create my own (successful and sustainable) organization that involves GIVING... doing what I can for third world countries... Anywhere from giving clothing to children to building a house for a family... Then it just hit me one day!
One for One.
