The Senior Thesis process was very rewarding and exciting to complete. Though laborious and stressful at times, the past two semesters have taught me how to critically look at a problem and figure out how best to solve those problems. I was able to work outside of my comfort zone, contacting industry professionals and communicating my questions in a way that would yield the best results. 

I was also able to learn a lot about scheduling, estimating, and overall constructability of a project. Things that I did not always consider in past assignments were continuously considered during the thesis process. Overall, I am very pleased with what I was able to accomplish these past two semesters and am proud of the knowledge and experience I have gained.
