About
Starting in high school I never had the opportunity to work, so I made up for that in extracurriculars. These included becoming a teacher's assistant, joining my student council and tutors my fellow students.
In college I have made it a goal to participate and better my campus community. Whether it be in racial equity, freedom of sexuality, or self-care, I want to encourage fellow students to take part. I have worked alongside my friends to attend and help in clubs on campus that work to create a relaxing and welcoming environment during stressful times.
Finally, I have taken up volunteering with my schools volunteering organization. I work in the surrounding residential households and businesses to gain an understanding of the struggles that come with living in the Colorado Springs area.
I want to continue my exploration of differing values and use any resources I am presented with. I can't wait to see where I go as college progress.

Goals and interests
- Career goal
I am currently looking into fields of Data Analytics. I have a focus towards more financial or policy-based work, but am open to working with any business to gain experience and test the waters.
- Graduate school interests
I am looking into economics or law graduate schools depending on where my interests shift. If I decide to pursue more data consulting positions I would prioritize law school. However, if I stayed more heavily towards data analytics I have considered a PhD in Econ.
- Outside the classroom
My hobbies involve painting, dancing, reading, planting, cooking, and boxing.
Volunteering
-
Stocking shelves for food banks and packaging care boxes for elderly. When shelving we must sort through food to determine if it is still edible or decide how much of an item to put out for the day.
