CAS Blog: September 2018

To start off my CAS journey, I would just like to say that mainly I've been playing guitar as my creative aspect. I've played guitar since I was twelve years old in the fifth grade, and I would say that it is probably my number one hobby. Mainly, I just enjoy blues-based progressions and songs. I pretty much practice every day, and I look on improving my skills in any way I can, particularly within soloing, as I believe that I can maybe move beyond simple blues-based solos and maybe incorporate other styles to build a more comprehensive and complex repertoire. However, in the near future, I plan on doing other creative pursuits, mainly in computer programming, such with which I've had interest in pursuing for a while.

CAS Blog: March 2020

Lately, I have been negotiating with the head of the middle school campus of my school in planning a service project for National Honor Society, where I'm planning to teach the middle schoolers of the campus computer programming, which I believe really connects with the nationwide and worldwide need of more leaders in STEM fields as computing becomes larger and larger every day. Besides the implementation of the Magic: The Gathering Club at school, I haven't really done much of service for the school in a while, so I'm really excited for this upcoming project. Additionally, ever since there was a relative void left when I decided to no longer do workouts with Blake, I've been lately getting outside more and doing walks around the neighborhood, which is really nice and allows me to appreciate the nice breeze, blue sky, and the world outside of strings and screens.

I have been working on completing slides for my internship supervisor, which will be used in a presentation given to this class of MBA candidates at Rice. The research involved in creating these slides has been really cool and interesting, and has taught me a lot more about cryptocurrency and blockchain economics. An example of one of these slides is below:

CAS Project Blog #3

On February 20, I actually went to Rice University to attend day one of the course my internship supervisor taught to the MBA candidates. It was pretty interesting seeing all of the MBA candidates in the room, but it was also quite intimidating; me and my fellow intern were the only teens in the entire room, and presumably building, which I guess is really not surprising considering the context we were in. Although most of the information I already knew due to researching it to create the slideshow that was being displayed behind him, it was still a really cool experience attending an actual college course.
