My life goals are to be successful. I want to get accepted to my dream college, Duke University, and graduate with either a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Engineering. I would also be honored to be a part of a study abroad program in college to travel and explore new places. Ideally, I would like to get a job that corresponds with my major and that will enable me to live comfortably. I am most passionate about my education, being happy, and being artistic at this point in my life. My goal is to get as many college credits as possible in high school to be more successful in college, as well as complete my education at the Central Virginia Governor's School for Science and Technology. I am trying to think more positively about life and take as many advantages as I can. I also am incredibly passionate about art and reading. I read about fifty books per year, and I compete in art and artistic writing competitions occasionally. I also sell my paintings at local craft fairs and markets in the downtown area of my city. I believe that I am a great candidate because I work incredibly hard for everything that I have and will accomplish in the future. I am also trustworthy and kind to most everyone I meet.
