Gerard Vaughn

Lewis Gerard Vaughn was born in Lexington, Kentucky May 2, 1979.  He then moved to Boca Raton,  Florida where he grew up with his parents and two older brothers.  In Boca Raton he attended Olympic Heights High School where he was an athlete and a scholar.  Florida A & M University was the only option he consider for college.  His father attended FAMU and he had a brother currently enrolled at the college.  He chose mechanical engineering for his major because as far as he could remember he was interested in how things worked.  In high school he excelled in math and science, therefore, he knew what type of career he wanted.  While at the FAMU\FSU College of Engineering he worked on many different projects over the years, but none as immense and extensive as his senior project.  As his final year passes, he looks back at all the classes and material that he has learned and he knows that he chose the right field, mechanical engineering.
