 Executive/Programming Vice President – HOWIE SCHULMAN

    

        I don't always play with Legos; but when I do, you can't see my floor. I am Howie Schulman, and I am the Senior USY Exec/Programming Vice-President. I love to build things; it doesn't matter whether it is a modified dart gun or concept parking structure. I attend Milken Community High School and have always taken a liking to the sciences. I hope to one day work as an engineer and will hopefully be able to use my borderline psychotic love of legos in a way that helps our world. I also have this same mentality towards my position on the board. My goal is to use all of the pieces given to me through interests and input of our members to design events that raise the bar for creativity and fun.
