I am 16 years old, African American, male, and a very quiet person. I like art, music, and, pop culture. In short, I am a very creative person. My strengths include being artistic, intelligent, and able to work under pressure and in teams.

I am currently a rising 11th grader at Booker T Washington High, which is a very historical and also famous school, and I am very lucky to be there. My grades are pretty good in all my various classes. I am also currently an intern at the YouthWORK Program at Raising Expectations. Through this program, I have learned college readiness, work ethics, and soft skills such as the values of team work.

My goal is to become an automobile mechanic or a weaponsengineer because they require building skills and also involve metal, which I like a lot. I hope to be able to build and also customize my own armored car complete with stereo speakers and room for my family.
