Bio

I'm a member of the LGBTQ+ community, and I've seen how people in it can struggle. I grew up in an environment rife with homophobia and anti-education sentiment, and my parents kicked me out of the house due to my identity. I'm determined to be more than where I came from, and the diverse views and people I've encountered have shaped who I am today. Though a lack of support from my parents will make for a difficult challenge, I'm confident I can persevere. Throughout my life, I have been interested in various subjects, ranging from chemistry to history, to astronomy. However, one field allows me to fulfill my passion for the sciences while helping those around me. I've resolved to be a civil engineer, allowing me to help create cities that bring us together and improve our lives.
