Hello everyone! My name is Amanda, and I am a sophomore student from Virginia, attending boarding school in another state. I specialize in essay writing here on Schoolhouse, as well as the development of creative narratives. Beyond reading and writing, I'm a creative writer, and I've won a Scholastic Gold Key, Silver Key, and Honorable Mention. I was also an editor for my former school's literary magazine, receiving 2nd place at a state wide competition for my individual work, and highest honors as a school. I currently write for my school newspaper and literary magazine, and run a book review column on the newspaper. I'm a cross country skier, and also participate on my school's Debate Team. I have a lead role in my school's winter One Acts play. I'm an engaged member of investment club and love volunteering as a peer tutor at my school. can't wait to get to know you.
