My name is Thomas White and I hold a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering. I grew up in the city of Chico, Ca. A small town approximately 80 miles north of the capital of Sacramento. Growing up I was always fascinated by the way the world works in both social and scientific ways. I enlisted in the United States Marine Corps right out of high school and explored the world and its many cultures. It was here that I learned the essentials of leadership, and where my decision to walk the path of personal development began. Upon returning home, I set off on a new career path and decided to undertake the challenge of an engineering curriculum. During that time I met many like minded people and garnered a new set of skills, and a tenacity for excellence. As a young aspiring technical professional, I seek to continue to improve myself. I found that Modeling and Simulation is an area that I excel at and use to continually exercise my engineering judgement and find new ways to approach the analysis of a problem. As I traverse down this path of technical enlightenment, I increasingly remind myself of the things that I have learned from my many experiences at home and abroad, and never disrespect the high value of total mission accomplishment.
