The one thing I am most passionate about is the protection of the planet! With this passion comes the challenge of integrating sustainable practices not only into my everyday life but into the career path I ultimately choose. After becoming involved in my high school’s Eagle Business Academy and competing at DECA districts and states under the accessory and apparel marketing category, I felt a natural gravitation towards the world of business. Simultaneously, I was working with my high school’s community service club on different projects to help local communities, as well as starting my own Habitat for Humanity Club. This project consumed my senior year with planning, fundraising, training, team leadership, and, of course, building houses for low-income communities in Chester County, PA. Through this experience, I learned about management, organization, professional communications, digital marketing, and new ways to help the world around me. My experiences have taught me the importance of people and the planet over profit. I plan to carry this mission of doing my part to shape a more sustainable, equitable world through my business endeavors!
