My commitment to my education is very important to me. Ever since I was a little kid, I’ve loved to learn, read and acquire more knowledge. This positive quality had followed me all the way to middle school and now, high school.

When I came to the amazing, opportunity filled institution that we know as Kalamazoo Central, I was awed with the amount of different academic clubs, levels and intellectuals available. Immediately, I sought out to join things that I developed a deep passion for like Model United Nations and Mock Trial. For many years now, I’ve been challenging myself by taking academically advanced classes. Sophomore year my schedule consisted of classes like Honors Chemistry,

The National Honor Society has been one of the most influential organizations that I have been apart of.

I want to preface this by saying thank you for taking the time to considering me as a member of your organization, it is truly an honor. Throughout my life I have developed a drive for excellence in everything I do.
