Why They Love Being a Student

Surge loves being a student because he gets to challenge his mind through learning new things and discovering new ways of expanding his mind, skills, and accomplishments he never knew were possible. Defying all odds in what was always told was probably impossible from his autism, adhd, ocd, and touretts.

Favorite Subject & Why

Surge's favorite subject in school is STEAM. He wants to become an engineer creating and developing things that will help the better good or the people all over the world while helping astronauts in space if he can become a doctor/surgeon.

How $20,000 Would Support Their Goals

Surge is interested in furthering his education in engineering and eventually going to space as a doctor or a surgeon to ensure the safety and welfare of the other astronauts that will be going to space. The money would help get him involved in additional services and expand his knowledge in the chemistry and development of things in space.
