Jorge's Story

My passion is engineering.

I discovered my passion for engineering at an early age. I have always been surrounded by technology, and as I grew up, began wondering how things worked. This fascination has inspired me to pursue a future in engineering.

By attending iD Tech Camps, I'll be able to gain more experience and knowledge in the field of engineering. I am looking forward to surrounding myself with people that share the same interest in engineering and technology as me, and hope to gain more insight on the field through the program.

A Note from Ms. Shieh, Jorge's Counselor

Jorge is an excellent candidate for iD Tech Camps. He is curious and charismatic and persistent, and the opportunity would be an amazing way for him to learn and network with the best in the field. He loves learning and asking beneath-the-surface questions about how to solve the problems that people struggle most with. Although already an excellent student, he wants to know what college success will look like in the future, and this summer opportunity would introduce to him the kind of immersive learning experience that he hopes to be a part of in the near future.

Thank You

So... hello again sorry that I have not send an update in a very long while. The reasons why would be that I have been busy with my library volunteer work, my summer work for school, and that I forgot about so I am sorry. I would like to updated that I when and finish the ID tech, summer camp and my thought about it would be that I love it. If I would get the chance to go again with the same people and build another robot I would love to do it. I love meeting new people and meeting my leaders. They where really funny and nice, in addition I learn a good amount of information about Robotic and coding. In the end I just really want to say I am really glad that I got the chance to go to the program and I am really thank full for you how help enter the program. Thank You.

Good wishes and Happy Summer from Jorge, Thank You.

My class, with our leader PTK. I'm glad I got the chance to meet them, man I miss them.

Getting ready and Thank You

Hello, so far so good, in getting all the material needed for the iD Tech camp and making sure that I have transportation and knowing ahead about the summer camp. In addition I would like to say thank you to all those who donated to my campaign, so that I could attend to the program in the end. Even if you donated around 20 or 25 dollars, that is a lot for me and I really appreciate you doing that. Not because you help out in my donation but, because you went out of your way and donated money to my campaign knowing that you would not really benefit from it. That is why I thank you so much and I really appreciate everything that you have done for me. Thank You.
