I have been to 28 countries on five continents. I was supposed to go to Australia this year, and it would have been my sixth continent but COVID happened…

My fears are…
Small fear: Spiders, but I kill them so they don’t grow bigger and surprise me later
Big fear: Climate change

What extracurricular activities did you do in high school?
I did dance team, some studio dance classes, FBLA, Key Club, National Honor Society and was part of various committees (prom, homecoming, etc.)
