I achieved the rank of Eagle Scout. I was able to communicate with the leader of the VFW and organize my project so it appeased him and the veterans. My project was to paint my local VFW and lead teens and adults to help accomplish this goal. The veterans were very happy with the results.

• I had shadow experience with Physical Therapist at Loyola Hospital. I spent 4 hours with them going to patients and following what the person who I was shadowing told me to do. I learned about how physical therapy is done in a hospital setting.
• I took care of my grandma, dad, and mom when they had various surgeries. I helped them move around, complete day to day tasks, and assisted them in doing their workouts that were assigned by a physical therapist.
• I worked backstage for a concert. I followed orders of the higher ups there, by doing this I finished setting up, and packing up when the show was done without any problems.
