I graduated from Ohio's Avon Lake High School (with Honors!), attended my local community college to get my Associates of Science (I have been, and will be, working my BUTT off), and am currently studying Chemical and Bimolecular Engineering at the Ohio State University.
Pictured: How I felt about attending that high school. |
I typically pay off school with grants, scholarships, and working for *usually* 24 hours a week in a factory job.

When I'm not working, studying, or going to school, I typically spend my days taking photographs and/or spending time with my family and/or friends.
Throughout high school, I fell in love with two main things: Chemistry & Photography.
I first got into Photography during my junior year of high school. I took the basic photography class and immediately fell in love with it. The teacher, Mr. Christian Fredricksen, basically crafted this source of inspiration. Eventually, when I was a senior, I took a whole year of college photography which, being offered at my high school, was taught by Mr. Fredricksen.

During the beginning of my senior year, Mr. Fredricksen appointed me to be one of the presidents of the school's *NEW* photography club (I basically gave my life to it, and the class). It was a great way to intertwine my leadership skills with my photography and chemistry abilities. I was even tasked with writing an article about it, which can be viewed here.

Of course, there is waaaaaaaaaay much more to this story... but I don't want to bore you too much with talk. If you DO want to know more, feel free to message me on here OR send me an email at GoonderBOG@yahoo.com
In all honesty, I do not really know the first thing about writing a biography about myself. All in all, though, this is how I got started.
I hope you can find my blog inspirational, too.
