Affiliations
- 3D computer modeling and design was a component I taught myself. I find joy in making various models for people and even sell my services.
- Baking is an enjoyable hobby, as the possibilities are endless and even though some dishes may not look how they were expected, the taste always makes up for it in the end.
- Arts and crafts is always something that has drawn me. Drawing, painting, sculpting, and even crafting out of foam are all ways to express my creativity.

Accomplishments
- During my senior year of high school, I took part in a class called, “Lessons of Leadership.” The class was taught by the head of the school who had many great lessons to share with us students. I observed and studied all kinds of leaders from around the world, and I truly understood what qualities about myself had the essence of leadership. I was able to formulate what aspects a good leader should have and applied that to myself.
- Public speaking always offers an exhilarating feeling and that is what I felt when I spoke on Veterans Day to all staff and students of my school, as well as the many veterans and family members that joined me. My speaking brought people to tears and I am so grateful that I was able to have an impact on so many others.
- Since graduating, I have partaken in a 3D modeling and design hobby. I taught myself how to work my way around any programs and continue to better my skills. I have started a small business where I offer my 3D modeling services to those who wish to implement models into games, or even bring them into the real world with 3D printers.
