Evyon's Story

My passion is working with technology and learning more about computers.

This has been my passion ever since I received a PlayStation 2 and wanted to know how it worked. I've always been fascinated with toy cars with little chips in them. I would wonder how the tiny chip could make a gigantic remote control car run. Now that time has passed, I see that technology has improved and advanced over the years. For example, the iPhone 4 became the iPhone 6, and graphics in games get way better over time.

Attending iD Tech Camp will develop my passion by helping me further my idea of what I want to do in the future. I want to be able to change the world through technology. Also, attending this program will make me happy abut pursuing my dream and passion. But really, I don't want to do this just for me, but to actually become somebody and let my parents know that I can achieve greatness in life.

A Note from Ms. Beninati, Evyon's Teacher

"Evyon is an exceptional candidate for iD Tech Camp because he yearns to be better. He is respectful, patient, and willing to be critiqued if it will make him a stronger person. He is curious and inquisitive, and when he speaks it's easy to see that while he is a quieter student, he is a keen observer of what is going on around him.

Evyon will immediately benefit from the opportunity to collaborate and work with other motivated students. Teamwork will show Evyon that you do not have to be the loudest person in the room to be a great leader or to do remarkable things. I also believe that Evyon will contribute a kind of balanced perspective to any situation; this is something I've rarely seen in teenagers his age."

My fun experience at my camp

Thank you everyone who donated to my campaign! I had a fantastic time and met new people who I laughed and worked with. I got to make two projects and got the software to make new games on my own time. I really enjoyed my time there, thank you again! I really wanted to go here and I can't believe I actually got to.

Excited for ID Tech Camp

I'm excited to have this amazing new experience for not only pursing my dream but knowing what it's like to sit in an actual college class. This is really going to help me for the future. This opportunity makes me feel like people are out there to help me. ME. I'm just a person like everyone else, but this is a special opportunity to do what I want in life. Thank you everyone for your donations, I really appreciate this.
