Ariel's Story

My passion is engineering.

I discovered my passion for engineering when I saw a rocket ship at the age of 10. At this point in my life, I thought that if someone could make a spaceship, I could make something bigger, faster, and better than them. The thought of being able to build new technology or equipment that people can use really excites me. Engineering opens more doors for me because I know that my mind can run free and I will learn how to bring my ideas to life.

A Note from Ms. Theis, Ariel's Teacher

iD Tech Camps New York offers an incredible opportunity to empower Ariel to continue following his dreams of pursuing engineering. He is aware of his passion at this moment, and is fortunate to have an introductory course offered at our high school, but this program will push him that much closer toward envisioning a purpose for working hard in school and then going to college-- he will see that not only is he totally capable of being an engineer one day, but that there are chances to do so despite certain disadvantages he grew up with. Ariel has a ton of potential, and this program will give him continued clarity and affirmation of his preexisting drive. Ariel is also a very relatable and kind young man, and this program will also give him more opportunities to meet other young people and expand his sense of community. He would highly benefit from this program, and I sincerely believe iD Tech Camps New York would benefit from his presence.
