Hello my name is Jackson Caltuna. This is my 6th year attending Conrad Schools of Science, I chose the Bio- Tech pathway and chose Chinese as my language. When im not at school or doing school work I enjoy admiring and driving cars. I don’t care if they are slow or fast, but they need to be sceaming. Furthermore, from styles of cars to philosophy I carry a hefty influence of japanese culture. Which includes the influence of art, philosophy, city pop, music, etc.
