Robotics Instructor/Unit Ranger | Camp Tahquitz – Angelus Oaks at I taught the Robotics merit badge in the camp's STEM center in addition to being a unit ranger for various Boy Scout troops. A unit ranger is essentially a guide for troops each week. It was my job as a unit ranger to make sure troops were safe and arrived at camp activities on time throughout the week. During the month I was up at camp I earned Staff Member of the Week for the 4th week of camp (2022).

I earned 50 Merit Badges and achieved the Rank of Eagle Scout (2022). I completed over one hundred hours of community service. One part of my project required me to build shelves and install them for my school so that the Band and Orchestra programs may use the shelves to store instruments. That project took me exactly one hundred and thirty-six hours to complete. This was only one step in my journey to Eagle. In order to earn the rank of Eagle, I have been working in my community for seven years. Through this scouting journey I have participated in hundreds of hours of community service. In my troop I held the leadership positions of Assistant Senior Patrol Leader (2019 – 2020), Troop Guide (2020 – 2022), Quartermaster (2018 – 2019), and Assistant Patrol Leader (2019).
