About
Throughout my high school journey, I have dedicated myself to academic excellence, community involvement, and personal growth. As a member of the National Honor Society, National Beta Club, and Student Council, I have continuously worked to uplift my school and serve as a role model among my peers.
In addition to academics and service, I am also a student-athlete, representing my school on the basketball team. This experience has taught me resilience, teamwork, and the importance of discipline—lessons I carry with me in all areas of life. I also had the privilege of attending the UAMS Pathways Summer Program, where I deepened my interest in pursuing a career in the medical field. My dream is to become a healthcare professional who provides care and compassion while also advocating for underserved communities.
