CURRENT MISSION

See things from as many perspectives as possible while I'm young and open-minded

ABOUT ME

I have too many things that I need to do, but not enough time. But I am determined to continue chiseling away at my list until the day I stop breathing.

I am a born and raised San Diegan currently pursuing a PhD in engineering at USC in Los Angeles, California. Hopefully I will have more opportunities to travel the world at every available opportunity during grad school!

PHILOSOPHY

"Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
The courage to change the things I can,
And the wisdom to tell the difference."

Everything happens exactly the way it's supposed to happen.
