"Getting There" HCC Student Profiles

The sky’s the limit - or at least NASA - for Jhef Felix’s career destination. His trek started from Haiti and continued with his graduation from Oakland Mills High School and enrollment at HCC. After HCC, Jhef plans to transfer to UMBC for a bachelor’s degree in computer engineering. HCC’s engineering program and a job in the college A/V department helped Jhef focus his lifelong fascination with computer hardware. And like any good engineer, he understands the need for tools and resources to solve problems. Jhef applied to be a Silas Craft Collegian and has received valuable academic, personal, and financial support from the program. He also took advantage of the National Science Foundation (NSF) Scholarship Program at HCC to help fuel his dreams.
