About
I'd like to say my endeavors for knowledge and experience started in my very early years of school; solving 500 piece jig-saw puzzles at the age of five, I used my desire of piecing information together to observe the larger picture in many ways, but most specifically in the science of computers and technology. Self-taught at the age of 15 in many principles of computer work, such as programming, networking, hardware, web development, repair and more, I founded an online computer-repair website which quickly grew to a user base of over 4,000 unique visitors from around the world. After hiring four employees from around the world, we began advertising and collected initially about $250 per week through Google AdSense. Eventually we became known for our computer related “How-To” videos and sold the rights to many of our videos at an average of $1,500 a video.
As college consumed more of my time, I was limited to the amount of time I could spend on my website. I was employed at Kroger in the produce department, and within a year advanced to the meat department. Later gaining acceptance into the meat apprentice program, I gained an extremely unique opportunity to further discover the anatomy of such an appreciated mammal, the Cow, I became a part time butcher and continue to cut to this day with almost three years of experience.
Study Abroad
I studied abroad in the summer of 2010 to New Zealand and Fiji, where we focused on health in aspects of environment, culture, society, and many other factors. I’ve also enjoyed myself in the presence of many other beautiful countries such as Italy, London, United Arab Emirates, Turkey, Lebanon, and Syria.
Hobbies
I currently enjoy a variety of additional activities such as photography, gardening, fishing, reading, and traveling.
Aspirations
My most aspiring role model is Bill Gates, founder of Microsoft and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. I believe Gates has made the largest positive and most everlasting impact in human history. Not only revolutionizing and advancing the world in multiple facets of computers and technology, in 2010 alone, he donated $10 billion in vaccines, which has been projected to save over 7.5 million human lives. I strive to continue such a humanitarian effort to better this world while I spend my time here.
