Matt Tolentino

I was not in class for the day Matt Tolentino came as a guest speaker for our class. To benefit from this blog post I did some research on Matt. He is assistant professor within the electrical and computer engineering department at UWT. He has a PHD in computer science and holds over a dozen patents.  After doing some research I came across Matts resume and was surprised because it was over 9 pages long! I learned a lot through reading his resume and it showed a lot of his interests and skills. Reading over Matt Tolentino’s bio really had me thinking about myself and how I can improve the way I do things. Currently I struggle with many of my classes in my major and for me to become successful I need to become more inspired and driven. Matt is really amazing at coding because he has a PHD in computer science this is very inspirational to me because it shows that you can accomplish anything you put your mind to. Even though Matt has a PHD in computer science he is a assistant professor this just shows how passionate he is about what he does in his life. For me to become a better engineer I have to fall in love with what I do and the only way for me to do this is to become more passionate. Matt Tolentino inspires me to work harder as an individual pursuing STEM and I might take him in the future.

Anything substantial that can be possessed or controlled to create cash and that is held by an organization to deliver positive monetary esteem is an advantage.

Startup

This documentary was very interesting. It showed Khaleil and how he built his startup company. The documentary really showed a lot of the aspects that go into building your business and the way it showed it through the CEOs lenses was amazing. Khaleil faced a lot of struggles but not once did I see him give up. He literally says that “he refuses to lose” and it shows. This documentary shows a lot of the things we talked about in class. There’s partnerships, there’s talk about business partners, legal help with lawyers, hiring people and the different levels of the company. The hours of work that are put into the company are not really shown but you can tell that a lot of hours are put into everything. The two owners of the company khaleil and his friend are always arguing and have a lot of differences. They don’t agree on a lot of things but always come up with solution. One of the things I really admire about Khaliel is his ability to talk to people and communicate positively. Even ...

Shadrach White

Shadrach White was one of the most interesting guest speakers and I was fascinated by his drive and the way he never gave up. Shadrach started from nothing and made his way to the top through perseverance and patience. I also believe that his character is what got him far because of how he interacts with people and because he is an all around nice guy. I am extremely passionate about basketball and when I saw that Shadrach started a rucker park jersey I was so pleased. For me I grew up on basketball and it is something that I put in a lot of effort and time in. Basketball brought a sense of community to my neighborhood and It brought people together from all backgrounds. When I saw the idea behind Shadrach   it just showed me that he was someone that really cared about what he was doing, again he is another guest speaker that was passionate about what he was doing. One thing that most the guest speakers had in common is that they were passionate about what they were doing and thi...
