A Little About Me

When I was young I was always interested in circuitry, automation, and math. At the time I didn’t realize what the first two where, but yet they where incredibly interesting. I grew up very inventive. As I grew older, I was fascinated with anything that was complex. I began to learn trigonometry, and algebra 2. Now at my current age, I want to become an aerospace engineer. I love physics and math. They both follow a patterns that you can manipulate. I want to become an aerospace engineer. It puts together my favorite subjects and is really interesting and challenging.

The reason I chose Stairway to Heaven by led zeppelin is because it is an incredible piece of music that inspires me.

This is me working on my “Ghost Cube”. I have only ever solved it once so it would be a great accomplishment for me.

Albert Einstein

1. Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein defied modern scientists(of the time), and then turned out to be right several years later. He is a perfect example of why scientists should stick to their ideas.

Isaac Newton

2. Isaac Newton

Isaac Newton created the idea of gravity, and is what allows us today to be able to have the ISS in orbit. Along with gravity he created plenty of other advancements in physics. His laws are also used to create the laws of astrodynamics. (Newton’s law of universal gravitation and Newton’s laws of motion)

Johannes Kepler

3. Johannes Kepler

Kepler is a German mathematician, astronomer, and astrologer. He created the laws of planetary motion, a key role in allowing us to achieve orbit. He is a very important part of modern space exploration.

Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you’ll land among the stars.
