How has CSI³ helped you?
CSI³ has helped me to stay organized and to plan ahead. Every semester they provide us with planners to plan for the academic year. I enjoy planning and talking about the future. Also, they have helped me understand that it is okay to fail as long as you rise up. That no one is perfect, but that you have to work hard for what you want.

What keeps you motivated and positive throughout life’s hardships?
What keeps me motivated and positive throughout life’s hardships are my family, girlfriend and food. My family and girlfriend always have the right words to encourage me to keep going, and food just makes me happy.

What advice would you like to give to your fellow scholars?
The advice I would like to give my fellow scholars is that being on time is late, and being early is on time. Also, it’s okay to fail as long as you learn from your mistakes, and don’t do it again...you will achieve success. You only fail when you give up.

What are your plans after graduation?
My plans after graduation are to land a job in my field and become someone important to better myself.
