Raul Andres Enriquez Villaroel:
“It’s interesting how when I see representatives of talented and recognized individuals, I feel very distant from achieving that level of success. I often find myself trapped in a bubble that creates barriers to my own accomplishments. However, having had the opportunity to meet the judges and learn about their careers, I have come to realize that horizons are simply mental constructs.
Winning this award has motivated me to embrace more design challenges, knowing that I have received recognition in my first competition. This achievement marks the first step towards a promising future in my career.”
Raul Andres Enriquez Villaroel:
“Throughout the month-long competition, I encountered numerous emotionally challenging situations that posed obstacles to giving my best effort. Nevertheless, the valuable lesson I learned from this experience is that even in unfavorable circumstances, it is remarkable to realize that with a clear vision of one’s goals, coupled with patience and dedication, it is possible to achieve success. Furthermore, my deep passion for design and the creative process played a pivotal role in driving me forward.”
Raul Andres Enriquez Villaroel:
“There have been numerous individuals who have had a significant influence on me. I would like to mention a few notable ones. First and foremost, I hold great admiration for Destin Sandlin from the YouTube channel “Smarter Every Day.” His work in engineering and science has profoundly impacted my interest in technological development and understanding the inner workings of various phenomena.
Grant Sanderson from the YouTube channel “3blue1brown” has revealed to me the inherent beauty of mathematical rigor and its crucial role in comprehending the mechanisms behind many phenomena. Additionally, I am grateful for the contributions of my professors, who have played a vital part in shaping my perspectives. Collectively, these influences have enabled me to effectively conceptualize this project, integrating both technical and creative elements with precision.”
Raul Andres Enriquez Villaroel:
“I’m still uncertain about the specific area of design I want to specialize in, but I have a strong interest in exploring the realm of developing new technologies, materials, and processes alongside engineering.”
