About

I am a dedicated student that strives to make a positive change in the world by encouraging people to embrace themselves and to be kind. I am an artist and a writer with an interest in psychology, I would love to work in animation and media that people will see and be inspired by. I work hard every day to improve my knowledge and to prepare for my future.

Honors and awards

  • Rookie of the Year Award

    Band award given to most improved and persistent new-year student in the South Brunswick marching band of 2021

Goals and interests

Career goal

I would like to be a storyboard artist, an artist that designs the panels of animation in its most basic form. If I am unable to do this, I will pursue a job in art therapy. Art will always be a hobby of mine and a part of my life. I may also publish my writing projects as well, if I write something of that nature.

Outside the classroom

I enjoy drawing, writing, reading, watching television, playing video games, learning languages, researching cultures, playing clarinet, and spending time with my family and friends.
