I am currently a student at Milton High School finishing my senior year while also holding a part time position at Kroger. In high school I have participated in football and basketball as well as a volunteer club.While in the flow of work and studies, I am also currently in the process of enlisting in the Georgia National Guard to start my military career and attain experience. In addition to the Guard, I have been accepted and plan to attend the Corps of Cadets at UNG Dahlonega with the ultimate goal of creating my career as an officer in the Army. While attending the Corps of Cadets, I plan to major in Strategic and Security studies with an Eastern European focus. I want to follow this path because I have a strong pride and connection to my country and would love the opportunity to serve as well as create a career in the military. My family having a lineage of service as well as being surrounded by those who have served has also impacted my decision. Outside of my responsibilities, I enjoy nature, skiing, and learning to further myself. The best qualities about myself are that I am easily coachable, a hard worker, and can thrive under pressure.
