    Aspiring construction manager and road worker! Much respect! I hope he gets into a good university with major in construction management, design, architecture, or landscape architecture and earns his bachelors and does big in school (especially with STEM subjects) and in the working field! He could definitely be a legendary worker and college student! I see his aspiration!
