February 16th- February 23rd
This week I finally figured out what I will be doing for my final product. I decided to create an app. I have a long term plan to create a really complex application. However, given the amount of time to complete this project, approximately 3 months, it is unrealistic to accomplish. The huge application is composed of 3 parts: personal training, weights, and nutrition. For my final product, I will create one section of the huge application. The section I have chosen to create is personal training. I have drawn out how I want the app to look. Unfortunately, I do not have an technology or programming background. I have asked Thomas Wheeler, a computer science genius who is also a senior at Liberty to help with with the technical part of the app.
Also this week I went to a career fair at the American Airlines Center. I met a lot of professional sports team representatives including the Dallas Stars and the Texas Rangers. This event reminded me of our business symposium, however, at our business symposium I was competing with all the ISM high school students and at this event I was the youngest person in the pool of candidates. Everyone was a professional at interviews, which was intimidating, but once I introduced myself to the first candidate my nerves were gone and I was much more confident. I learned a lot while watching the other people talk to sport team representatives such as how to come across confident, laugh and smile appropriately, and how to keep the conversation going even when someone wants to move onto the next person. Overall, the event was success and a huge opportunity for me to attend.
-I spend approximately 6 Hours on ISM work this week.
