At a very young age I fell in love with science and math but I also began to learn many new things and when the dreaded question, "what do you want to be when you grow up?" was asked I was left completely confounded. How could I choose only one thing to do for the rest of my life when I loved to do so many things. It is only until recently that I have discovered something that I would be willing to do forever and this feeling has propelled me into doing everything I can to get there.
The School of Engineering at UPenn can provide the rigorous yet enlightening curriculum to help me pursue my major in Chemical Engineering. UPenn's various courses will also allow me to continue my childlike learning. I wish to absorb information so that I may be able to use it in various fields not only in my intended major but also in life in being able to communicate and interact with others. The education I will gain at UPenn will be the staple for how I interact with future co-workers, bosses, and business partners.
UPenn's wonderful professors and courses will allow me to be challenged enough to enjoy the reward of being able to figure out a problem or discovering something new not because it was easy but because it pushed me to my boundaries and I gladly pushed back.
