Career Goals

My career goal is to become a software engineer, I started taking an interest in math and computers recently.

My second career goal is to become a firefighter; I went to SVCTE my junior year and took Fire Science. It has been a very different experience so far as I am used to the military style class from last year.

College Plans

The College I would like to go to now would be Cal Poly. My first choice to major in would be Software Engineering, but I am also willing to major in Computer Science. Cal Poly does have programs for my career field choices which would be Software Engineering and Computer Science. With the knowledge I gain from computer progamming, I think it will stay with me forever. So even if I do not continue computer progamming as a career I will have grasped the basics to possibly make apps of my own, for one day I will hope my apps will help people from all different backgrounds.

If everything does not work the way I would want it to, then I would move on to studying to be a Paramedic. Once I become a paramedic I would like to work full-time a couple years to have experience in the field and have a little bit of money so that I can go back to school and study to become a physicians assistant. From their I could settle down and on my freetime will have computer app coding as a hobby.
