Soar Evermore
My son, you grew so quickly
Just yesterday so young, so small
Today you told me something
Not easy a task at all
As we sat in the kitchen
You took hold of my hand
"I have something to tell you," you said
"And I hope you'll understand."
Your silent pause lasted ages
But son, I already knew
I'm so relieved you came out
And now you can be you.
I am inspired by your bravery
By living authentically and rising above
Stand up for equality for all living beings
And always believe, "Love is love."

I graduated from Flower Mound High School June 2017. Fall 2017 was my first semester at University of Michigan College of Engineering where I was able to enroll as a sophomore (thank you, AP credits!) into U of Michigan's dual discipline degree program. I am majoring in physics and electrical engineering/data science and will graduate with degrees in each in less than four years. My goal post-bachelor's is to continue at U of Michigan graduate school where I will pursue a PhD in physics.
