Miles Walker
Boulevard ’02
Heights High ’09
Miles is a sophomore at The Ohio State University. 

What’s your major or degree?
My major is electrical engineering.

What would be your dream job after graduation?
My dream job would be working for Google or Nintendo.

Do you have a favorite memory from elementary school?
My favorite memory is of the Boulevard Blast,  more specifically the “Magnet Mile.” Now that I think back I’m pretty sure a lap around the school is not a mile but it seemed like that and I would go out on a full sprint only to get burned out near the finish line and come in third or fourth place.

 

What did you learn at Heights High that prepared you for college?
I learned quite a few things at Heights High. I learned how to handle large workloads and how to effectively complete my work on time. Also I learned that Heights is a fairly diverse school and it prepared me to interact with different types of people.

What did you enjoy most at Heights?
The teacher I enjoyed the most would have to be Ms. Bradshaw. After completing her chemistry class in the tenth grade, I thought I would never need to use that information again. but during my freshman year her voice was in the back of my head telling me how to use “sig figs” and unit conversions.

What advice would you give current Heights High students?
Don’t be afraid to challenge yourself or try something new.
