[edit] About Me
Name: Friedel Pretorius
- Originally from Colorado, I am now in my second year at Humboldt State University studying Environmental Engineering. I have a passion for helping others and solving problems. I intend to go to med. school when I finish my engineering degree at H.S.U. and combine medicine and engineering to help give impoverished nations around the world the strength to fight for independence.

[edit] Interests in Engineering
- Clean drinking water is a right all people have and any project focusing on making clean water easily and cheaply available is worth praise.
- Innovations are equally as genius as original solutions, because not only do the innovators take time to recognize the complexity of a solution, but they also ask how it can be better.
- My interests in engineering extend to anything that results in the better quality of life for the average individual.
[edit] Experience in Engineering
- My experience in engineering stretch little further than education and research. I have had little time with my hands on an actual engineer-specific project, but as for finding solutions to everyday problems in everyday approaches- well, I guess I have been doing that most my life.
- I look forward to furthering my education and gaining more experience with working on complex problems.
