When I was younger I wanted to be a doctor but as I aged I started to get nauseous at the sight of blood. But then, while doing a career search activity in middle school, I found a job that would still help people in the medical field while also staying away from all of the gore that comes with being a doctor. The field of engineering intrigues me and ever since I started high school I have been working my way into hopefully becoming a biomedical engineer so that I can make a positive impact on the lives of others. I have taken engineering classes and have studied engineering and STEM sleepaway summer camps at colleges. I visited North Carolina A&T and loved the engineering department. All of the technology impressed me and I knew that I wanted to be a part of the campus. Backstory, my brother, Kai has Down syndrome and when we were younger I would always be thinking of new inventions that would make my mom's life easier. For example, once Kai wandered off while we were out for one of my soccer games and though we did find him, my mom was very stressed. so when we got home I sketched out a design for a Tracker necklace that would give my mom Kai's precise location therefore lessening her anxiety about losing her child with special needs. Although this has been done, back then I didn't know that it was already a real thing. I used the little knowledge I had about geographical locators and still presented it to my mom as if I had created the best new idea. This is where my love for creating and helping people came from. I have joined a sign language course at my high school and have been interested in learning sign language. This is because I would like to be able to connect with people even if they aren't able to hear. To me, being able to communicate with a broader group of people, even those who may have different ways of communicating, is crucial to expanding knowledge about others' perspectives. I would also like to be able to create new devices that help those who have “differing abilities” as my mom and I call it. I would like to make more updated prosthetics that have deeper skintones and also new devices that help thos with disabilities be better understood and better understand the world around them, in a way that works for them. The field of biomedical engineering blends my academic and personal goals. Because I have been so interested in both science and engineering for the past few years, I think that this field allows me to continue researching and inevitably improve patient care in the real world. I would like to work closely with experts and other researchers so that I can contribute to new lifesaving medical equipment, more realistic-looking prosthetics, and assistive devices that would be more affordable for the average consumer. I would love to witness the relief on a patient's face when they take back their independence but also don't have to worry about being in debt for the rest of their lives. My experience in political and social clubs encourages me to not only make the equipment but also make the equipment accessible to everyday patients.

All of the technology impressed me and I knew that I wanted to be a part of the campus. Entering High School brought new opportunities that would transform my life and allow me to discover the career choice that I feel is not only my passion but also my purpose. during I way, which is a pathway to discovering engineering fields. The courses taken in this pathway allowed me to work on projects that were centered around mechanical electrical digital and software engineering. During a research class I chose to take in high school we had to choose a topic and by the end of the year, we would have a full research portfolio. Although I enjoyed studying numerous areas of engineering, I found biomedical engineering the most fascinating and purposeful. Therefore, I chose this topic to complete my research project. My portfolio with my research findings can be found at (https://kaleblambert-bmeresearch.weebly.com/). The three people who have inspired me the most are my mom, uncle, and my brother who has special needs. My mom inspired, encouraged, and supported me to follow my dreams all my life. I've watched her work hard as an educator as she stayed up late preparing lessons and greeting papers. Her work ethic and tenacity to strive for excellence in her career motivate me to work hard to accomplish my goals. My uncle started his career as an electrical engineer And ended his engineering career as a software engineer. He always talked about the projects He was working on and how the team he worked with solved problems. My uncle always made his work seem challenging but very rewarding.

Because I have been so interested in both science and engineering for the past few years, I think that this field allows me to continue researching and inevitably improve patient care in the real world. I would like to work closely with experts and other researchers so that I can contribute to new lifesaving medical equipment, more realistic-looking prosthetics, and assistive devices that would be more affordable for the average consumer. I would love to witness the relief on a patient's face when they take back their independence but also don't have to worry about being in debt for the rest of their lives. My experience in political and social clubs encourages me to not only make the equipment but also make the equipment accessible to everyday patients.

When I was younger I wanted to be a doctor but as I aged I started to get nauseous at the sight of blood. But then, while doing a career search activity in middle school, I found a job that would still help people in the medical field while also staying away from all of the gore that comes with being a doctor. The field of engineering intrigues me and ever since I started high school I have been working my way into hopefully becoming a biomedical engineer so that I can make a positive impact on the lives of others. I have taken engineering classes and have studied engineering and STEM sleepaway summer camps at colleges. I visited North Carolina A&T and loved the engineering department. All of the technology impressed me and I knew that I wanted to be a part of the campus. Backstory, my brother, Kai has Down syndrome and when we were younger I would always be thinking of new inventions that would make my mom's life easier. For example, once Kai wandered off while we were out for one of my soccer games and though we did find him, my mom was very stressed. so when we got home I sketched out a design for a Tracker necklace that would give my mom Kai's precise location therefore lessening her anxiety about losing her child with special needs. Although this has been done, back then I didn't know that it was already a real thing. I used the little knowledge I had about geographical locators and still presented it to my mom as if I had created the best new idea. This is where my love for creating and helping people came from. I have joined a sign language course at my high school and have been interested in learning sign language. This is because I would like to be able to connect with people even if they aren't able to hear. To me, being able to communicate with a broader group of people, even those who may have different ways of communicating, is crucial to expanding knowledge about others' perspectives. I would also like to be able to create new devices that help those who have “differing abilities” as my mom and I call it.

Although this has been done, back then I didn't know that it was already a real thing. I used the little knowledge I had about geographical locators and still presented it to my mom as if I had created the best new idea. This is where my love for creating and helping people came from. I have joined a sign language course at my high school and have been interested in learning sign language. This is because I would like to be able to connect with people even if they aren't able to hear. To me, being able to communicate with a broader group of people, even those who may have different ways of communicating, is crucial to expanding knowledge about others' perspectives. I would also like to be able to create new devices that help those who have “differing abilities” as my mom and I call it. I would like to make more updated prosthetics that have deeper skintones and also new devices that help thos with disabilities be better understood and better understand the world around them, in a way that works for them. The field of biomedical engineering blends my academic and personal goals. Because I have been so interested in both science and engineering for the past few years, I think that this field allows me to continue researching and inevitably improve patient care in the real world. I would like to work closely with experts and other researchers so that I can contribute to new lifesaving medical equipment, more realistic-looking prosthetics, and assistive devices that would be more affordable for the average consumer. I would love to witness the relief on a patient's face when they take back their independence but also don't have to worry about being in debt for the rest of their lives. My experience in political and social clubs encourages me to not only make the equipment but also make the equipment accessible to everyday patients.

Personally I really just like a lemonade with light ice. I usually get in right before midterms would start in the fall. When I was younger I wanted to be a doctor but as I aged I started to get nauseous at the sight of blood. But then, while doing a career search activity in middle school, I found a job that would still help people in the medical field while also staying away from all of the gore that comes with being a doctor. The field of engineering intrigues me and ever since I started high school I have been working my way into hopefully becoming a biomedical engineer so that I can make a positive impact on the lives of others. I have taken engineering classes and have studied engineering and STEM sleepaway summer camps at colleges. I visited North Carolina A&T and loved the engineering department. All of the technology impressed me and I knew that I wanted to be a part of the campus.

I would like to work closely with experts and other researchers so that I can contribute to new lifesaving medical equipment, more realistic-looking prosthetics, and assistive devices that would be more affordable for the average consumer. I would love to witness the relief on a patient's face when they take back their independence but also don't have to worry about being in debt for the rest of their lives. My experience in political and social clubs encourages me to not only make the equipment but also make the equipment accessible to everyday patients.

Entering High School brought new opportunities that would transform my life and allow me to discover the career choice that I feel is not only my passion but also my purpose. during I way, which is a pathway to discovering engineering fields. The courses taken in this pathway allowed me to work on projects that were centered around mechanical electrical digital and software engineering. During a research class I chose to take in high school we had to choose a topic and by the end of the year, we would have a full research portfolio. Although I enjoyed studying numerous areas of engineering, I found biomedical engineering the most fascinating and purposeful. Therefore, I chose this topic to complete my research project. My portfolio with my research findings can be found at (https://kaleblambert-bmeresearch.weebly.com/). The three people who have inspired me the most are my mom, uncle, and my brother who has special needs. My mom inspired, encouraged, and supported me to follow my dreams all my life. I've watched her work hard as an educator as she stayed up late preparing lessons and greeting papers. Her work ethic and tenacity to strive for excellence in her career motivate me to work hard to accomplish my goals. Also, my brother Kai who has Down syndrome inspired me every day to be better and to strive for excellence. My brother is an awesome young man who was born with Down syndrome. He has such a big personality and everyone loves him. When we were in elementary school my mom would take us to many events and I noticed my mom was often concerned about him getting lost or going missing. This was a major concern because he could not communicate to share the basic information that could help him in getting him back to us or home. When I saw this I continually thought about what I could create to solve this problem. I figured a device he would wear such as a bracelet or necklace embedded with a locator or GPS would keep him safe and make my mom less stressed about my brother getting lost. This inspired me to become an engineer and to create things that could help people and solve problems which will provide a better quality of life for all. My membership and involvement with NSBE Jr, NTHS (National Technical Honors Society), SGA (Student Government Association), Alpha Achievers, MESA, National Technical Honor Society, BSU (Black Student Union), Pink Ribbon Club (breast Cancer Awareness), ASL Club, and Environmental Club have inspired me along the way as I journey to work becoming a biomedical engineer. I have joined a sign language course at my high school and have been interested in learning sign language. This is because I would like to be able to connect with people even if they aren't able to hear. To me, being able to communicate with a broader group of people, even those who may have different ways of communicating, is crucial to expanding knowledge about others' perspectives. I would also like to be able to create new devices that help those who have “differing abilities” as my mom and I call it. I would like to make more updated prosthetics that have deeper skintones and also new devices that help thos with disabilities be better understood and better understand the world around them, in a way that works for them.

When I was younger I wanted to be a doctor but as I aged I started to get nauseous at the sight of blood. But then, while doing a career search activity in middle school, I found a job that would still help people in the medical field while also staying away from all of the gore that comes with being a doctor. The field of engineering intrigues me and ever since I started high school I have been working my way into hopefully becoming a biomedical engineer so that I can make a positive impact on the lives of others. I have taken engineering classes and have studied engineering and STEM sleepaway summer camps at colleges. I visited North Carolina A&T and loved the engineering department. All of the technology impressed me and I knew that I wanted to be a part of the campus. Backstory, my brother, Kai has Down syndrome and when we were younger I would always be thinking of new inventions that would make my mom's life easier. For example, once Kai wandered off while we were out for one of my soccer games and though we did find him, my mom was very stressed. so when we got home I sketched out a design for a Tracker necklace that would give my mom Kai's precise location therefore lessening her anxiety about losing her child with special needs. Although this has been done, back then I didn't know that it was already a real thing. I used the little knowledge I had about geographical locators and still presented it to my mom as if I had created the best new idea. This is where my love for creating and helping people came from.

My visit to North Carolina A&T brought a clear vision of purpose and a feeling of love as we toured the engineering building and the campus. I would also like to be able to create new devices that help those who have “differing abilities” as my mom and I call it.

I need this scholarship so that my single mom doesn't have to worry about paying for college and can use her money to take care of my brother with special needs. I'm trying to apply for as many scholarships as possible but can't seem to get picked. I think that heavy metal music is just a misunderstood form of self expression and music. I think that people don't under stand that under all the loud can be meaningful and deep lyrics, and I admire that a lot.

My intended major is biomedical engineering. My passion for medical research and my passion for engineering led me to choose biomedical engineering as my area of study. It all began at age seven when I went to my pediatrician for checkups. I admired her and was inspired by how she helped people feel better. She would explain everything she was doing to my mom and me, and I was fascinated and curious about how she knew so much. I told my mom I wanted to be a doctor. My mom enrolled me in various stem camps and programs that have allowed me to explore and experience many careers and that's how I discovered my love and passion for engineering as well as my love and passion for medical research. For many years I couldn't decide on a career choice because of my passion for both medical research and engineering. Entering High School brought new opportunities that would transform my life and allow me to discover the career choice that I feel is not only my passion but also my purpose. during I way, which is a pathway to discovering engineering fields. The courses taken in this pathway allowed me to work on projects that were centered around mechanical electrical digital and software engineering.

I've watched her work hard as an educator as she stayed up late preparing lessons and greeting papers. Her work ethic and tenacity to strive for excellence in her career motivate me to work hard to accomplish my goals. My uncle started his career as an electrical engineer And ended his engineering career as a software engineer. He always talked about the projects He was working on and how the team he worked with solved problems. My uncle always made his work seem challenging but very rewarding. Last but not least, my brother Kai who has Down syndrome inspired me every day to be better and to strive for excellence. My brother is an awesome young man who was born with Down syndrome. He has such a big personality and everyone loves him.

I think it's important that we work to better understand the nature of the universe because it would allow us the have a better/deeper connection with those who aree different then us. This is very inportant to me cause it would also mean that people like my brother and his classmates would be better understood in their future.
