I like to set high goals for myself and find new ways to do stuff. I also enjoy running experiment because when I am doing an experiment i can get people to understand my idea and look at something in a new way. I'd like to put my natural curiosity to work finding new ways of making human life healthier and better. I want to take my ability to look at things in new and different ways and use it to create new paths that are better than what might be available now.

I deeply care about the welfare of humanity, and in that I hope to voice myself as best I am able. A side project, but authorship of a novel, something of my own invention, is an intention; the story has been collected from figments in my head, someday to become written word. Art is, to me, an acceptance of fantasy, and from that I hope to develop a Video Game of some sort in order to express that. My mind is fluid, and so it would appear disoriented, but it is simply expanding in all branches of the same thought.

Jordan D.

I'm a very respectful, kind, honest, investigative, and well organized serious individual who can work well with others to carry out tasks in detail or follow through on other's instructions. I especially love to learn new things technologically and/or research about stuff I can't find a solution to, but once I find an answer, I just can't wait to pass that information along to others. I hope to find a career in the computer/technology field to become a library of information to others.

I like to work with everyone and everything as long as its my team. I prefer a closed group not dealing with public in general. My hobbies include walking my dogs, spending time with my husband and son, as well as playing board games and card games. In general i'm a very investigative worker , a very conventional person , and a very social-bee.

Wally K.

I would like to use the power of GIS to understand and address environmental and developmental problems within my community and the world at large. GIS can further be used to know the location of assets and to understand the risks that are associated with these assets. GIS, can also be leveraged to make the work of organizations more efficient. I believe that efficient and green organizations would lead to a more prosperous and resilient world.

As an unconventional thinker and innovative individual, I hope to introduce my thoughts and ideas to the world. In expressing my ideas in creative and unique ways, I will face skepticism and hesitant audiences; however, I hope to capture the hearts and boggle the minds of as many of my viewers as possible, and bring both old and new philosophies to the attention of the world. I hope to accomplish this through stories of all sorts, presented in writing, film, and theatre with something for any and all audiences to learn from.
