4 months ago, I broke every bone in my face. My facial bones were detached from the rest of my skull. 90 screws and 30 plates later, I’m on the road to recovery. Modern medicine is amazing!

Two months ago, I broke every bone in my face. This is an MRI showing the result of my facial reconstruction surgery. The blue rods/circles are 3D printed plates molded and inserted to return my facial skeletal structure to almost exactly what it was before the incident. Modern medicine is amazing!

9 years ago, my bio teacher tried to place me in the on-level science class, despite my perfect score on the EOCT. My 8th grade science teacher manually overrode that decision, and inspired a love of science. Last weekend, I presented my research at a national conference from Princeton University!

M/23/5'7 [165lbs > 175lbs = 10lbs] (4.5 Years) As college freshmen, we decided we wanted to make a change. Not as much of a weight loss transformation, but still proud of the consistency, effort, and discipline required to make such a physical change, and maintain it for half a decade (twins)

As college freshmen, we decided to make a change. It’s been 4.5 years of consistent effort, but we’re proud of the progress we’ve made! Some of our highlights include competing at drug-tested nationally competitive events, breaking a state record, and bouncing back from heart surgery! (We’re twins)

Made a DD post on MOGO last weekend calling it one of the most undervalued stocks in the market. I still it’s horrendously undervalued, as growth is absolutely EXPLODING. Already doubled my investment and not selling a single share until 25+. This baby has room to run; it’s not too late to get in!
