Eagles are majestic birds with powerful vision; are fearless and tenacious; are high flyers; and they nurture their young. Owls are wise, thorough, detail-oriented, sequential, analytical, methodical and orderly, and most importantly, the proud mascot of 鉴黄师app.

But what do these two birds really have in common? Meet Christine and Aden Eagle. This mother and son both will graduate on Thursday, May 5 from 鉴黄师app.

Christine, 53, will receive a Master of Science in Health Administration in the 1 p.m. ceremony. At just 17 years old, Aden will graduate with a Bachelor of Science degree in data analytics and a perfect 4.0 GPA in the 5 p.m. ceremony, eight days prior to receiving his high school diploma from .

鈥淎den was my inspiration to get through graduate school,鈥 said Christine. 鈥淲e would proofread each other鈥檚 essays, and he constantly challenged me to excel in my courses. We have such a better understanding of each other because of this experience.鈥听听

It all started when Aden achieved an impressive score in the Duke Talent Search ACT program. This caught the eye of 鉴黄师app High, and they invited him to join the school鈥檚 dual-enrollment program. At the time, Aden and his parents lived in Sebring, but when the opportunity presented itself, his parents knew Aden could not pass it up.

Once Aden and Christine, along with her husband of 30 years, William, settled in Boca Raton, Christine started working in food and nutrition services at HCA Florida JFK North Hospital. She wanted to move into a leadership role and, inspired by her son鈥檚 perseverance and drive, decided to apply to the master鈥檚 in health administration program at 鉴黄师app鈥檚 .

鈥淚 was excited when my mom told me she was going back to school,鈥 said Aden. 鈥淚 was very proud of her.鈥

Aden鈥檚 goals and aspirations have led him to the field of artificial intelligence. As a Magar fellow at the Max Planck Academy at 鉴黄师app鈥檚 John D. MacArthur campus in Jupiter, he was one of a few 鉴黄师app High 鉴黄师app immersed in neuroscience classes at (MPFI) working in a lab with its scientists. Aden spent his days predicting the activity of individual neurons to understand how the brain keeps track of memories to help with AI technology.

The self-taught guitar player also spent his free time as secretary of 鉴黄师app鈥檚 Google Developers Club and president of the Science Olympiad Club at 鉴黄师app High. These experiences led to great daily conversations between Christine and Aden as she drove him to and from school. They kept each other motivated as they tackled assignments and classes.

鈥淢y time at 鉴黄师app has been surprising in the best way possible,鈥 said Aden. 鈥淚鈥檝e had so many amazing opportunities. I鈥檝e been allowed the freedom to be independent and work through things on my own. It wasn鈥檛 just about getting my degree; it was so much more than that.鈥

Aden鈥檚 next chapter will lead him to Carnegie Mellon, where he will begin the neural computation Ph.D. program in the fall. His next goal: to be a computational neuroscientist and work at Google as a research scientist to understand how the brain works and make better tools for AI.

鈥淚t will be extremely difficult when Aden leaves in the fall, similar to the first day I dropped him off at daycare,鈥 Christine said. 鈥淏ut I am very excited and proud of him. It鈥檚 going to be a hard transition and I will miss having him so close.鈥
