      How I plan to make a positive impact on the world through my technical career is because we help to keep our world running. Working on small microchips on phones and devices to working on large aircraft electrical systems that are more complex. Becoming an electrical engineer does not only make these devices work smoothly, but we help solve these problems for those who have these certain issues. All of the electronic devices that everyone use has altered our human lives and have become an essential aspect of our lives. As an engineer, I hope to make significant contributions to society and I hope to improve the quality of life of everyone. I have previously worked in the healthcare field before, and I always wanted to take my education further and go to college to study in the healthcare field, I also wanted to do engineering, but when I found out that healthcare engineering is a thing, I just thought that this was something for me. Working as a healthcare engineer contributes a vital part to the scientific environment that drives healthcare forward. As an engineer working in this field, my goal is to optimize procedures and enhance how patients experience treatment. A specific role that I can work in is a clinical engineer at the hospital, and working in this field means developing medical innovations where we ensure positive outcomes from having clinical practices on medical devices. Working as an engineer in the healthcare field means having empathy for others and having a good strong ethic which is essential to have when working in healthcare. Engineers that work in the healthcare field work closely with other doctors to design equipment that can help other doctors in medical procedures. Working as an engineer in this field often means managing the care of medical equipment, such as imaging machines, scanners, and monitoring systems. Working in this position not only means helping those who need help with their health but also means helping these doctors help those others. I plan to support and optimize the use of healthcare technology. I imagine myself working in two fields that I am eager to study in one. I enjoy helping others who need not only our help but most importantly the doctors. I am also very interested in working in the engineering field where people improve eh devices we use every day and have become a part of our lives. I imagine and hope to work in the healthcare field as an engineer, devloping and improving devices to help others that need our help.

      How I maintain my mental health in school is by taking things nice and slow in a calm manner. When things get hard in school I just remind myself that everything will be alright, it is not the end of the world, and that I will get through it, getting a good amount of sleep is good for school so your mind is ready for the day. I tend to stress about many things when it comes to school, and it's mostly about the work I receive in school and always making sure I do my best. Sometimes things don't always go as planned and every day won't always be a 100% good day. I learned to write things that I worry and stress about in a notebook, to me it is a way to express how I feel when I am stressed out, and this really helps me maintain my mental healthy by prioritizing my problems, fears, and concerns, learning ways to better control them. Exercising at home and in the gym is a way I maintain good physical health during my life in school, I workout out at least 3 times a week, focusing my mind on the exercise and not stressing about anything else, because this is a way for me to forget about all of my worries for a bit. The second that I start an exercise or walk into the gym, my mind is focused only on that right now and deciding what workout I am going to do. If I decide to go to the gym still stressing about whatever it is, I won't be accomplishing anything because I am distracted. Going to the gym is another way for me to maintain good physical health because this can help me avoid any health problems that may affect my current lifestyle, it will keep me strong and me cope with stress. Eating a healthy meal is essential to maintaining good nutritional health, and when in school, it can be a bit difficult to eat a healthy meal since some schools don't always offer the best lunch, but that doesn't mean I won't eat anything. Schools always provide fruits and vegetables with their lunches which I always decide to eat. Another important thing that is essential to my nutritional health is water, and I have committed myself to only drinking water and not juice because water is also very beneficial for our health and I always make sure to drink 6-8 bottles of water a day.

      My dream goal in life is to become what I always dreamed of being ever since I was little. I have always wanted to work in the medical field working to help others with their problems. I have been studying to become a certified nursing assistant in High School and I plan on taking my study further than this to work in the field of nursing.
