About

Becoming a member of HonorSociety.org really puts me one step closer to achieving my dream. Education has always been important to me and being able to influence our future's leaders would truly be a dream come true. I work very hard with my studies and I make sure that I am always on top of my game. Even though I cannot wait to officially become a teacher, I am still enjoying the place that I am at right now with my undergraduate studies. I currently work as a birthday host in my hometown where I am constantly surrounded by young children. I also volunteer as a cheerleading coach for children that range from 5-13 years old. In my free time, I relax with my family at home or take day trips to the beach. I am very excited to see where this membership will lead me!

Honors and awards

  • National Honor Society

    I was a 2-year member at Colonia High School in Woodbridge Township. To be inducted into the National Honor Society, students must have at least a 3.5 GPA, be involved with extracurricular activities, have teacher recommendations and have volunteer hours.

  • Heroes and Cool Kids

    Heroes and Cool Kids is an organization at my high school where we travel to the middle schools in our township and talk to sixth graders about bullying, health, and the abuse of drugs and alcohol. I was a 2-year member, and I was chosen by teachers.

  • Cheerleading Captain

    I was cheerleading captain at my high school for both my football and competition team. I was the first junior to ever become captain and I returned to be captain by myself during my senior year. This represented leadership and dedication towards my team.

  • Iselin Giants Award

    During senior night at my high school, I was awarded because of my dedication to the Iselin Giants organization as a cheerleader for 5 years and for the 5 years that I coached.

  • Cheerleading National Competition

    My competition cheerleading team won Nationals in 2012 by scoring higher than every other team in the division.
