Accomplishments

  • From my early start of elementary school and through high school a huge part of my life took place in dedicating my physical strengths and ambition in gymnastics competing state wide for WISC Sports Complex in the James City County area of Virginia.
  • I also volunteered in a leadership program in high school called Link Crew to help newer students coming into high school feel more welcome and prepared for the start of the year, showing the upcoming freshman around the school campus as well as informing them what sports programs are offered as well as school functions to attend to and other clubs that peaked any of their interests to feel more a part of the school.
  • As part of working for Hooters, promotions were offered to me with the chance to attend fundraisers such as car washes, raffles at small concerts, and golf tournaments to raise money and profit for charities as well as promoting the brand for new crowds of customers.
