*When I was 12 my first x-box wasn't working so I opened it up and tried to find the problem and fix it. I was successful in the end by the way, and I felt very proud of myself for that. It makes me laugh still to this day. | *When I was 12 my first x-box wasn't working so I opened it up and tried to find the problem and fix it.

About Me
- Paul Alan Acosta
- As a child I grew up with many toys and most of them would get disassembled by me and then fixed like new because thats what I liked to do. I always was amazed as to how things worked and what went in to making them. As I grew, my interest in engineering grew more and more but I also have other interesst such as playing sports, video games, math, running, and building.
Interests in Engineering
- I am interested in the building aspect of engineering.
- I am also interested in the designing of products to better the world and environment.
- I find the different kinds of things we can use to gain energy, such as wind power and solar power, very interesting.
- Oh I am very interested in trying to find a different way to power a car aside from gas or electrical.
Experience in Engineering
- As I grew up and over the summer I would help my grandpa build big bird houses.
- I've fixed a television by opening it up and looking through the system inside it one summer. It was very interesting and kind of difficult but I kind of fixed it.
- I built a roller coaster with popsicle sticks and tubing for my math class in 11th grade.
- When I was 12 my first x-box wasn't working so I opened it up and tried to find the problem and fix it. I was successful in the end by the way, and I felt very proud of myself for that. It makes me laugh still to this day.
