Hey Phil,

I sat down and finished it up. Let me know your thoughts.

Two years ago, I was a clueless high schooler driven by blind faith that studying engineering would “open doors for me in the future”. It took some time, but I finally understand what that quote truly means. The value of an engineering education does not solely lie in the supposed job security after you graduate (though, it is nice) — rather, it is buried in the life lessons that those years of friendships, experiences, and projects teach implicitly: how to approach problems analytically; how to develop solutions with collaborators; how to work hard; and (possibly most importantly) how to decide what is worth your hard work. 

Thanks again for this opportunity,

Mike


Thanks so much Michael. We deeply appreciate it.

Cheers, 

Phil
