Eagle scout

As an Eagle Scout, I have developed a wide range of skills through years of leadership, service, and personal growth. I've gained expertise in outdoor survival, first aid, emergency preparedness, and safety procedures, which have helped me become self-reliant and a strong problem solver. Leadership has been a key part of my experience, as I've taken on responsibilities in organizing projects, leading teams, and making critical decisions. I've also learned the value of teamwork, community service, and ethical decision-making. Through earning merit badges, I've explored various fields, including environmental science, citizenship, personal management, and physical fitness, making me a well-rounded and capable individual.

For my Eagle Scout project, I designed and built a lending library for children's books, styled to resemble the book Oh, the Places You'll Go!. The library is located at 407 Wesley Ave in Ocean City, NJ, at Lake Memorial Park, and serves as a community resource that encourages literacy and a love for reading among local children. This project strengthened my leadership, problem-solving, and project management skills while allowing me to give back to my community in a meaningful way.
