Had you asked me 1 to 2 years ago what I began this journey for, I would have answered something along the lines of for money, fame, or for college. Throughout my journey, I’ve changed with the challenges and the experiences, and today I present to you a different person to bring to the table in this community– someone who recognizes the ambition, the tenacity, and drive necessary to join and understands that we're all battling for a mission not just for the money, the fame, or the college acceptance, but for the critical moments where every second matters.  If persevering on with this vision means my or my colleagues’ engineering will someday save just one life, it is worth everything to give it all.
