About

I've taken all honors classes throughout all 4 years of high school (excluding those that did not have an honors version and Spanish II). I have taken 5 AP classes (as of August 2025), 6 AP exams (as of May 2026), and have taken a large amount of classes at my local community college. The lowest year grade I've gotten is a B, but the majority of my grades are A's.

Goals and interests

Career goal

After pursuing a BS in a business-related major and computer science and pursuing an MBA, I hope to work in an IT-related job in a business setting. My dream career at the moment is in data science.

Graduate school interests

I am interested in pursuing an MBA after completing my undergraduate degree. What route I will take to do this, I am unsure of, but I am confident that this is the path that I desire to take.

Outside the classroom

Language learning (proficient in 3, but learning many more); traveling; going to the beach; hanging out with friends; reading; watching TV; swimming
