Academic Projects
YWAM Operation Greenhouse: During my Junior year of high school in Fall of 2016 I worked and helped as a volunteer at Youth with a Mission to design and run a test green house for growing vegetables. This greenhouse design was a test for greenhouses to see if a community in a harsh environment could sustain itself and feed a community in struggle. The greenhouse design was built to be basic running off fish waste in a water filtering system to grow lettuce and other vegetables. This system is now used for Youth with a Mission being built in third world countries as a self-sustaining greenhouse for communities in struggle.
