01 / A STARTING POINTI’m Darren.
I’m a Grade 12 student at Dr. Charles Best Secondary, based in Burnaby, British Columbia. I use AutoCAD and Fusion, and I’m interested in studying engineering at UBC Vancouver.
My next step is to rebuild a selected drawing in CAD, compare its volume with a hand calculation and record the changes I make.
02 / A PERSONAL CONNECTIONWhy this work is here.
The stonework references come from my mom’s business, The Silver Stone Arts Co. Ltd. That family connection gives this portfolio a real-world setting: drawings, different materials and the surfaces people use in their homes.
The portfolio calculations connect lengths and thicknesses to volume, mass and forces. My own measurements and CAD files will show which parts I have personally checked.
03 / A WIDER PICTUREThere’s more than CAD.
Outside CAD, my activities include social media and research with SafeguardSenior, rugby, camp volunteering and music production.
The writing workbook below is a private place to collect specific experiences before adding them here.
