Chase Wilkerson
Student in San Antonio, Texas
Hi there, I'm Chase Wilkerson! I'm a savant when it comes to music or electronics. Nothing makes me happier than when I'm working with one hundred and eighty of my closest friends in my high school marching band. The only word that can describe the moment when my feet touch the hot asphalt of the marching pad or the crisp crunch of artificial turf is elation, because that means I'm able to be with my family. As a Drum Major for my high school band, nothing is more gratifying than watching the band perform what they have spent so long working on and seeing it come together.
When I'm not with the band, I spend my free time keeping myself entertained. That entails everything from playing video games to exploring my surroundings. Every now and then, I try to get away from technology to see the world around me through unfiltered eyes.
I would describe myself as a dreamer. My imagination is just as lively as it was when I was only a toddler. The only thing limiting me is my imagination. I aspire to be a forensic computer scientist because, although I do love the outdoors, computers are a fascinating thing. They are able to take me on as many adventures as would the outdoors. I could find myself, and I have, getting lost in all that these complicated pieces of technology have to offer.
From Music, to the Outdoors, to Computers, my identity lies not just in one of those things, but in all of them at once. I live from note to note and URL to URL. Catch ya on the flip side!
