Activities

One of my biggest achievements is being a member of the Battle of the Book’s teams throughout middle school and into high school. Even though our teams were small, I was always an invested and committed member of the teams. I am an avid reader at home with over 100 books and enjoy reading stories several times. Outside of school, my interests beyond reading have shifted into writing fictional stories. I have written numerous short stories to experiment with my skills, and am one day hoping for a professional publication of one of my stories.
