My life goals are to complete my bachelor's degree in construction management at the University of Texas at Tyler and apply that knowledge to project-level roles: roles like Project Executive, Operations Manager, or Director of Operations. What will make me a great candidate is when I complete my associate degree in pre-engineering at Trinity Valley Community College. The projects that I have done so far at UT Tyler are the Water Bottle Rocket Competition for the Ratliff Relay and the Baseball Trebuchet Launcher Project. I designed the water bottle rocket as a team of four students for the Ratliff Relay Competition. Gained hands-on experience while showing leadership skills, teamwork, and communication. We used multiple 2-liter soda bottles, used SolidWorks to model the CAD drawings, built the kit and parts, and made posters for the rough draft and final design. Made the rocket fly farther by scaling up the size of the fins, making it top-heavy, loading it with the proper air pressure, and launching at the best angle. I also worked with a team of four to write up the design for the trebuchet launcher, make the sling, acquire the baseball, build the trebuchet, and figure out the torque. Increased distance is launched by increasing the tension of the sling and having the release point be at an angle of 120 degrees. Our baseball launched over 10 meters.
