About Cole Newman

Hi, my name is Cole Newman and I am from Tampa, Florida. I love hanging out with friends, as well as watching sports and TV. I am majoring in civil engineering and I hope to be able to create important landmarks over my career. I am very imaginative and I love solving any sort of problem, whether it is mathematical or just logical. For me, I grew up loving math all throughout my childhood. I also enjoyed constructing things, whether that was building Legos or even drawing. At first, I thought that I wanted to be an architect, but after finding my passion for science in high school, I knew I wanted to become an engineer. I ended up choosing civil engineering, which is the closest to architecture, so it came to be a good compromise at the end of it. During high school, I coached local baseball teams of kids ages 8-15. I found that doing this, it led me to a great deal of joy being able to help kids in something that they enjoyed. That experience showed me that when I grow up, I want to do something that will bring me joy, but also help other people. Being a civil engineer is just that, as I get to help create new things that will help other people with their problems.
