Hi, my name is Seth. I work as a General Engineer supporting Army aviation. I obtained a bachelor's degree in Industrial and Systems Engineering from the University of Alabama in Huntsville in 2017. I completed a master's degree in Industrial Engineering with a concentration on Engineering Management from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville in 2021.

I do STEM outreach at local middle schools, mentor high school students at the Alabama School of Cyber Technology and Engineering, and teach as an adjunct instructor at Athens State University. My focus is manufacturing technology and engineering, but my educational background covers multiple science and mathematics disciplines.

From a young age, I have enjoyed problem-solving and understanding how things work. I believe that engineering, as well as the other Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) disciplines, is about problem-solving at its core. I frequently tell students that their diploma in a STEM major is a piece of paper that tells employers, “I know how to solve problems.” Each class, in its own way, is another opportunity to prove that the student knows how to solve problems, and throughout an education in engineering, we learn many different approaches to troubleshooting and finding solutions.

Approved Subjects

Algebra 1

Algebra 1

As the basis for so many of the higher orders of mathematics, Algebra 1 is very important. I completed Algebra 1 in high school and have used it ever since in such classes as geometry, trigonometry, Calculus 1 and Calculus 2.
Computer Programming

Computer Programming

My first language was Simple Basic. Since that time, I have learned Java, C#, C++, and Objective-C. C-based languages are my comfort zone in programming languages. I have taken programming classes, but I have also learned much on my own. One of the main responsibilities of my job is programming, and I have written numerous programs as well as a couple tablet applications.
Elementary Math

Elementary Math

It is important to grasp the basics of math in order to do well as the mathematics classes progress. Elementary math can be approached in simple and fun ways. I have a solid foundation in basic math after completing grade school, high school, and college mathematics classes.
English

English

In addition to grade school and high school English classes, I have taken four English/Literature classes at the college level. All four were completed with A(s). I scored a perfect 80 on the writing section of the PSAT, a 35 on the English section of the ACT, and a composite ACT score of 33.
Grammar

Grammar

One of my strongest subjects throughout my academic career has been English. Grammar plays an integral role in a firm grasp of any language. Whether in conversation or when writing papers, proper grammar will set you apart.
Microsoft Word

Microsoft Word

I learned how to use Microsoft Word through personal experience as well as a high school class dealing with Microsoft Office. Understanding Microsoft Word is important for many job positions since it is a standard format and work space for many professional documents. After completing high school and several semesters of college, I have become very familiar with Word.
Piano

Piano

I have been playing piano since I was eight years old. It is one of my favorite instruments. I can read music, but am more accomplished at playing by ear. Music is one of my hobbies and I play five instruments total.
Prealgebra

Prealgebra

The the mathematics of pre-algebra are important in many different fields, especially in mine as an engineering student. I scored a 30 on the math section of the ACT. I currently hold a GPA above 3.95 as a sophomore on my way to a bachelor's in Electrical Engineering.
Reading

Reading

My ACT reading score was 36. I enjoy reading and am building a library of my own. I understand the importance of reading skills for students.
Vocabulary

Vocabulary

As someone who has taken vocabulary in grade school, as well as four college English classes, in addition to having read countless books, my vocabulary is very broad. I enjoy the challenges of vocabulary. As a college student and employee of a university, I have had much exposure to individuals with large vocabularies and have picked up pieces here and there.
Writing

Writing

I have completed four college level English classes in addition to high school English. I completed these classes with A(s). As a sophomore in college, I have seen my share of papers and reports and I have been successful. I understand the importance of writing skills in the workforce and in education.
