About
Overall, I've seen and experienced a great percentage of what almost 18 years of life have given me. And I
have learned that being deemed competent and successful isn't just about status, work, or money, but also the
impact and influence it has on others. And through that, it allows one to grow intellectually, in a logical and
empathetic sense. Therefore, I wish to continue to exert a positive influence on others of various calibers and
create an environment that's open, fun, teachable, and close

Goals and interests
- Career goal
My intended job path has many divergencies, and since I have such a wide range of interests, it's difficult to pinpoint the exact trajectory I would like my life to take. However, I would love to influence others in a very positive manner, either through medical treatments, through visual imagery or through structures and buildings that allow for daily work and activities to occur. I'm not exactly sure what I intend to do but I intend to help others and spread the message of humanity—the message that we're all here for each other and we're all together, so helping each other and treating each other with the utmost respect is the best we can do to further mankind.
- Graduate school interests
My graduate school interests will most likely be whatever my undergraduate interests were. I'll pursue any major or any job that I see fit that'll further mankind and unite us closer than ever before. I'm most likely to secure something that inspires others to consider there relationships and communities more valuable than assets or property. I wish to display this crucial message either on screen or through my work as a practitioner.
- Outside the classroom
I wrote a screenplay called "The Businessman." This is a personal screenplay about the psychological damage done in WWII and the deleteriousness of scheming and planning against others for profit and status. It explores tenacity, perseverance, what is just, adjustment to the times, placement in society, love and trust, and it's extremely emotional. I also bake, cook, workout, and play sports.

Launch Staff/Branch Manager
I was tasked with ensuring the safety of our clients and that the branch operated smoothly. I would do multiple checks on lifejackets, thorough paddle talks, maintenance of the launch and the shop, and ensure waivers were signed and that clients understood the dangers of kayaking. I had to watch over and rescue clients on and off the water.

During my time volunteering, I assisted in leading walks on trails and pointing out invasive species and plants. We removed invasive plants, replaced vegetation and soil, and transported them to be used to help the wildlife by creating a catalyst for plant growth and regeneration.

I volunteered at a trailhead and informed hikers how to be safe and respect wildlife. I handed out maps, gave instructions and advice on the most optimal paths, and explained trail conditions and divergences.

I solely volunteered at the museum; I was a grounds manager. I cut and shaped the hedges, removed invasive plants, and preserved the plants. I planned and created a welcoming and inviting image for the museum. I carefully removed and disposed of the invading plants, replaced the soil, and reinforced it with mulch.
