People always talk about how they want to change the world...
I will actually do it.
Hello Steemit :) My name is Blaise Pascual. I was born at the same hospital as Barack Obama in Kenya Honolulu, Hawaii.
I'm a senior at the University of Washington studying Microbiology. I will be graduating at the end of next week. My senior thesis is titled "The Implications of Genetic Mutagenesis and Human Health".
I should honestly be working on that instead of writing this post...
I work in a pathology research lab studying the biology of aging tackling diseases, like Alzheimer's and Cancer, with an upstream approach. I gave a talk on my research last week at a research symposium. My lab's work has been featured on the Today Show!
I LOVE science.
I graduated from the Marine Corp's 10 week Officer Candidate School program last summer. It was the toughest challenge I've faced in my life thus far. I am scheduled to commission on the 4th of July! I have an aviation contract and I hope to fly on the Prop airframe.
At the beginning of this year I started up an EDM lifestyle brand, edmplur.com. I'm a HUGE fan of EDM and raves! I DJ'd several parties in college and I've even produced a few electronic tracks on my soundcloud. I decided to turn my love for EDM into a side venture and I'm currently focusing on building up a social media following before trying to generate more products.
I'm EXTREMELY excited to be apart of the steemit community. My long term goals are to become an astronaut, a succesful biotech entrepreneur, a mainstage EDM DJ, to live a financially comfortable life, and to document the entire process to serve as a blueprint for others on social media platforms like this! My biggest role models are Sherlock Holmes and Iron Man :)
The first thing I'm going to do after I graduate is continue learning how to code. I'm currently working with Angular 4 and Javascript and I want to learn Solidity then Ionic 2 afterwards! I want to eventually make decentralized applications!
To conclude, I'm REALLY excited to be apart of this community! I'd love to offer as much value as I can to the community and I'm happy to connect and network with all of you!
