Spring
break is just about to kick in for many of DRSS’s alumni in college! David
Sills, DRSS Class of 2015, has volunteered to share some about his experience
at STEM and what he’s up to now. During his time at STEM, David was involved in
many different extracurricular including Student Government Association,
Matthew’s Bill Campaign, National Honors Society, Junior Council on World
Affairs and many more. Currently, he is a freshman at Ohio State University and
is planning a future in biomedical engineering.
David Sills, Class of 2015, is now studying Biomedical Engineering at The Ohio State University. |
When asked about his time at STEM, he said that he "had a great time." He felt that STEM taught him a lot about himself, what he was interested in, and how to pursue his goals. At STEM, he learned what the real world is like and how helpful collaboration can be.

David
also feels that STEM does a great job preparing students for colleges. "STEM
gives you experiences like internships, job shadows and career fairs that give
exposure to the actual work field." He added that, "Teachers at STEM teach to
help students excel in life, not just that course."
Now,
David is studying engineering to work towards his major of biomedical
engineering. In his classes, he has to use lots of technical writing and work
closely with groups. "STEM made all this natural and even fun for me. It made
it easy to ask for help, which is especially important at such a big school
like Ohio State."

In
the near future, David has his schedule filled with plenty of calculus and
chemistry fun! He will also be starting a job shadow program at a medical
company as well as spending his summer in New Mexico. David loves the
challenges OSU offers and looks forward to new opportunity. Good Luck, David!
