Receiving the Chancellor's Student Achievement Award at Austin Community College was a truly humbling and honorable experience, as it implied being the sole recipient.

Guinness Book of World Records

I hold the Guinness World Record for the youngest cartographer in the world! Starting at age 11, I used drones to capture digital images for mapping locations in California and Texas. These images were utilized by Soar (USA), making me the youngest drone pilot and photographer to achieve this milestone. Utilizing stitching algorithms and GPS, I created large-scale maps for global use.
