Accomplishments
One accomplishment I am proud of is becoming a top-15 finalist in the NFTE (Network for Teaching Entrepreneurship ). I created a mental health focused business concept, developed a full pitch, and presented to judges, which helped me gain confidence and communication skills. Another major accomplishment was interning for the mayor where I learned about all the city's jobs and learned how local government operates behind the scenes.
