Bio

I am a high achieving and motivated student leader with excellent communication and business skills. In addition to my rigorous academic classes, I hold several leadership positions for different clubs including student government, Future Business Leaders of America, Academy of Finance, PTSA Student Board and National Honor Society. I am also a member of Best Buddies, Key Club and several honor societies. I was selected to serve as a Youth Ambassador for the Jr. Orange Bowl Committee and I have been a Varsity Lacrosse player for the past three years. I have been named a National Hispanic Scholar by the College Board. I enjoy volunteering in my community and have earned more than 1000 hours of community service in the past three years. I believe that we all have the power to make this world a better place.
