About

Hello! My name is Madison Doohen and I am a 2021 graduate from Cabrillo High School. I am attending the University of Oregon in the fall with a major in communication disorders and sciences. I was involved in many clubs in high school, a couple being Future Business Leaders of America where I held office as president, the Associated Student Body where I held office as senior class president, and a National Honors Society member. I also played volleyball all four years of high school. I plan on staying involved in clubs when I attend U of O.
