What are you studying and why did you choose this major?

I chose to study civil engineering as I enjoy helping to improve the State’s infrastructure.

What has been your favorite class so far and why?

I have enjoyed “Design 1” the most so far, as it was a challenging class where I exceeded my personal expectations and enjoyed the process of designing structures.

What traits define you? 

I would consider myself highly motivated with a positive outlook.

What are your hobbies?

I enjoy all forms of sports. I am very into physical fitness and have yet to find an outdoor activity I don’t appreciate.

What inspired you to intern with Sebago Technics and what do you hope to learn from your internship?

Pike fishing in northern Maine.

I was inspired to intern at Sebago Technics because I have heard nothing but great things about this company, which is what you want to hear about a place you see yourself working for after college. I hope to learn more about land development engineering during my time here.

Where would you like to go on a dream vacation?

I would love to go somewhere warm and stay in a bungalow.

What are your favorite ways to enjoy the outdoors with friends and family?

I like to go on hikes or fishing trips with my family and friends.

I look forward to improving civil-based infrastructure within New England.
