How This Project Relates to Me
My Professor has selected our class to participate in the iFixit project, and I believe it will significantly benefit my educational journey and professional development through technical documentation and manual revision. Since the iFixit project is primarily done remotely, it will also help prepare me for future remote positions, and have a positive impact on my communication skills in a virtual enviornment.
