What I’ve been doing since my GSO experience

The plans I originally had have taken a drastic change, with better and bigger ideas, my own shop is now becoming bigger and bigger with ideas I have seen and witnessed on my abroad trips. With other students I've met, I've picked up on things I would've never known maybe and has also given me the idea of helping my community with a future auto class connected with the college.

Fun facts about me

I have picked up a hobby of customizing and restoring Hotwheels and other toy cars that I find at second hand shops

I really appreciated the opportunity to go to Finland. It was beyond my wildest imagination that I would be doing this even a few months earlier. This opportunity would not have been possible without GSO. I am a very proud GSO alumni and hope that many others get to experience this long after I have moved on, living out my dream! An unforgettable experience.
