About MeMy name is Santiago Gonzalez. I am 18 years old and a senior at Sport and Medical Sciences Academy. I am and always have been a student eager to learn new things every day. My favorite subject in school is math and I genuinely enjoy learning about it. Throughout my mathematical studies, every new lesson has been a moment of joy for me. Some other things that I enjoy are playing golf and listening to music, especially classic rock. I have been taking golf lessons since I was 8 years old and I also play both the piano and guitar. My parents have always pushed me to work hard in school and I think they are the reason why I love it so much. They were both born in Colombia, but I was born and have lived all my life in Hartford, Connecticut. Throughout my life I have enjoyed everything that Hartford has to offer, but I have also realized that Hartford, an urban area, faces some serious issues like pollution that lead to consequences like super high temperatures. One of the solutions to these issues are trees, so that's why for my Capstone I am focused on planting trees in Hartford.

Mission Statement
I want to live, laugh, and love. I want to always be learning, leave the world a better place than I found it, and become financially well enough to support my own life and help support my loved ones. But whatever I end up doing, I hope I do what makes me happy.
