I am an assistant basketball coach and assistant Scout Master for William's Boy Scout troop 613. My personal hobbies include working on my 1976 Corvette Stingray. Building and testing hardware that has to do with space has many more variables involved with it than things that are built for use in our environment, here on Earth.

Work hard in school to achieve that goal. Don't let anyone or anything stop you. But most importantly, have fun.
