| I live in South Porcupine, Ontario. As a grade 12 student, I am currently a member of the varsity badminton team and I also labour as the student administrative council's Vice-President. Several of my favorite school subjects include science, mathematics and English. Outside of school I spend much of my spare time with family and friends. I am also involved in many extra-curricular activities such as cross-country skiing, snowboarding and water skiing. In the summer months I enjoy hiking, fishing, swimming and spending time at my cottage. I have received numerous medals and awards while participating in past INTEL ISEF and CWSF competitions. Currently, I am an Executive Board member of Volunteer Timmins, a member of the Mayor’s Youth Advisory Council and the Co-Chair of Ontario Teen Leadership North. Several of my other interests include reading, sculpting, cooking and hockey. I also play the piano and violin. I one day hope to enter the field of medicine. Clearly, I lead an active lifestyle and enjoy assuming/participating in a large variety of tasks and activities. |

Hot COCO2 The Energizer Reactor
| Division: | Engineering & Computing Sciences / Automotive | | Category: | Senior | | Region: | Timmins | | City: | South Porcupine, ON | | School: | Timmins High & Vocational School | | Abstract: | Fuel combustion aerosols have created a carbon cycle imbalance that shares a strong correlation to climate change. Electricity production and automobile use are the largest environmental imbalance contributors. An experimentally based alternative fuel approach to radiolytic conversion of evolved CO2 to CO via thermo-electric generating processes is presented and has the potential to fulfill the Kyoto Protocol by reducing fossil fuel demands and CO2 production. |
