Originally from Kenya, I moved to the United States and have since focused on building a strong academic and personal foundation. I immersed myself in my studies and extracurriculars, joining my high school’s soccer team and getting accepted in my junior year. Alongside school, I’ve worked a variety of side jobs—including babysitting, pet sitting, and caring for elderly individuals—to help support my family financially. I’ve also been active in community service, volunteering in local food distribution programs and other outreach efforts. Inspired by my passion for helping others, I am now preparing for a career in nursing and currently pursuing my CNA certification.
