"My high school experience has allowed me to ultimately grow as a person in so many ways! I have learned to be vulnerable and ask for help, how to communicate with teachers & mentors, how to work well in team-based settings, how to apply my academic knowledge to the real world, how to address a public crowd & showcase leadership, and most importantly, how to properly utilize opportunity. High school has taught me to take advantage of opportunity, which is what I plan to continue to do in my future chapters of life!"

Community Service: My greatest community service has been in my work with the Camden Community. I solely run a toy drive that goes directly to children in Camden. I work with the Student Actively Concerned Club to make peanut butter & jelly sandwiches for the Cathedral Kitchen. I also started a free STEM Program for children in Camden, which was a summer camp that I fundraised for, designed, and taught at. I also volunteer at various Medford events, such as the Halloween Festival. I donated my business profits to the No Kid Hungry Foundation, and I have helped to fund 5200+ meals! I am also a volunteer Medford Lakes children’s volleyball coach.
