EXCEL WITH CHESS
Purposeful Creativity
He builds planes, flies them beyond limits, and finds ways to improve their design.
Evan is 15 and lives in South Dakota where it's always windy. But that doesn't stop him from testing his next airplane. Sometimes it's a kit. Usually it's foam board, his customized laser cutter, modified plans, and relentless creativity. If a plane doesn't fly well, either it's modified, or his younger brother gets to airsoft it out of the sky.
Between school classes, Evan is always building something, 3d printing a part, and testing his ideas. Evan plans to fly full-size aircraft in the future - like his dad. Right now he's rising through ranks of the USAF Civil Air Patrol program.
Why Evan Plays Chess
Evan plays chess with his siblings and in the local chess club. It's not only fun to compete, it helps him visualize possibilities.
