I began learning Spanish in high school. After graduating high school, Spanish became an integral part of my college academics, becoming my minor. In high school, I hosted exchange students from China. After hosting them at my home, they hosted me at theirs when I traveled to Beijing in 2017. I gave a tour of my former high school to students from Greece and educated them on both my school and town. I traveled to Ghana, Africa in 2019 where I taught English in a local school for three weeks. I gained both cultural exchange, and the experience of teaching my language in another country. Since I was six years old, I have been a part of a sports team. This carried through my college career, where I attended and played basketball at a division 1 university. From this, I have learned the importance of loyalty, trust, hard-work, grit, and growing through adversity. 

Completed an oral proficiency interview through the ACTFL, where I received a certificate in Spanish, scoring at the Intermediate Mid level.
