@Kathy V

highlighting how he came up with ways to make caring for his brother easier/better which would be a great way to show problem solving/innovation skills. It doesn’t have to be a physical thing (although that would definitely be relevant to engineering)

Note that some engineering problems involve improving processes and services, rather than only designing things. So any improvement he came up with in the area of caring for his brother would be applicable to engineering.
