Q: What do you want to be when you grow up?
A: At the moment, I don't have a very clear idea of what I want to spend the rest of my life doing. However, I do know that I want to go into a type of engineering. Maybe I'll do mechanical engineering, but I would need more experience in what the field is like before I leap for it.
Q: Who is the most influential person in your life?
A: There are multiple people who have made a positive, significant mark in my life. However, the people who have created a base for these people to come into my life are my parents. They taught me to put effort in everything I do and to respect everyone I meet. My parents have been through a lot, so I want to be able to open a brighter and happier door for them to be able to be their raw selves and not have to worry about life's problems.
Q: Describe a passion.
A: I love drawing and sailing. With art I am able to materialize my emotions and ideas and bring them to life. With sailing, I am put in a situation where I have to constantly think about my next move and where the wind is pointing which is a little nerve wracking but it's fun.
