Hi! I'm a high school student based in North Carolina with a passion for leadership, creativity, and community impact. I'm actively involved in DECA, FBLA, and Odyssey of the Mind, where I explore innovation, entrepreneurship, and strategic problem-solving. Outside the classroom, I dedicate time to nonprofit initiatives that make a difference in my community. When I’m not working on projects or competing, you can usually find me at the YMCA or annoying my three parakeets
