Bio

I am a father and husband who chose to pursue a meaningful education later in life. The financial challenges that come with this decision are substantial. I am passionate about engineering and mathematics, and my life goals are to become an engineer and, possibly, a teacher. There are many things I would like to pursue in my education, but I also want to balance this with spending time with my family and not exhausting myself with trying to make ends meet. I am determined to make this dream a reality!
