Summary
I attended Independence High School my freshman and sophomore year but moved to Tracy during my sophomore year summer and attended Tracy High School and graduated from there in May 2024. I have been volunteering ever since I was little even if it was at church or around mu neighborhood. I love working with others and learning new ideas and ways I can better myself and the world, Working with animals have been a very key idea in my head and want to continue to have this love for them. I am very grateful to have these volunteer jobs that have shaped and helped me to be the person I am today. I want to continue growing my skills and gaining new opportunities to do so.
