My name is Julian Cates, and I am a Class of 2024 student attending Adairsville High School. I have always been very passionate about engineering and computer science to improve the world around me. My 8th grade year magnet schools established in my county and when I heard about this Adairsville's STEM program, I immediately applied to go out of district to pursue their engineering pathway. While in the STEM program I have found that I am very passionate and skilled at civil engineering and Revit. I am a student athlete as well by participating on Adairsville's varsity golf team during the spring and also currently working at Papa John's.
