SIU Carbondale Student Ambassador
I’m a studious, persistent and devoted student from Carbondale,IL .The things I love most in life are family,computers and hanging with friends. I’ve been a computer technician for four years, and I really love it.On week days you’ll usually find me working,studying,volunteering. On the weekends I like to watch movies with family, working on cars, and hang with friends.My idea of the perfect day would start with obtaining scholarships. And then I’d buy the required tools for my Aviation class. Later I’d study abroad at various airports. And I’d top it all off by giving back to my community.The kinds of people I enjoy the most are ones who are here 1000% and are trust worthy. That’s important to me because i have goals, and if you become an obstacle within my path to completing my goal, i will drop you..My dreams for the future are live comfortable, obtain a job in Aviation and buy a new car. So what am I doing to achieve those dreams? Well, how about attending college at Southern Illinois University Carbondale, for starters. And also,maintaining a GPA worthy of excellence. One thing I need to do more of is apply for more scholarship. I may not be the most extraordinary or intelligent person in the world, but I do work extremely hard to surpass expectations and standards, to provide better opportunities for myself in the future.
