Summary
Some of my most outstanding achievements were during my sophomore and senior year of high school. During these years I made it to the top 10 in 2 major culinary competitions and won 1st place in one. I overcame changing to new areas and living with different family members to thrive and become the strong hard working person I am today. I plan on continuing to be this person and taking my skills, fast learning, and initiative into any field I aspire to be in.
