My interest started when my uncle would talk to me about the technology used in the army. He served 20 years in the army. He knows a lot. Then he got me into drones. The Black Boys Code workshops motivate me to continue learning.

I have so many interests I want to explore. I might want to be an aerospace engineer, go into computer science, and become an Olympic Swimmer.
