“Since I was a child I have always been fascinated with how things work and developing things that can help other people andmake their lives easier, so once I was old enough to start thinking about jobs engineering seemed to be the natural decision. The more I've learned about engineering and the different kinds of applications it has, the more I feel I've selected the right career path. I hope to

learn even more as I continue through school and I plan to maintain a passion for helping others every day. I can't say thank you enough for this financial assistance, but that won't stop me from trying. Thank you so much!” - Kyle McComis, University of Kentucky, Charles W. Finkl Scholarship Winner
