Although my high school years are mostly defined through academic success, I would have to say my most meaningful achievements came through the North Carolina FFA. This national organization provides me with countless opportunities to showcase my leadership abilities in my school, community, and state.

These positions led to serving on nominating committees, planning community events, attending leadership conventions and conferences, and participating in a state-qualifying parliamentary procedure team. It was these experiences that gave me a passion for public speaking and Agribusiness.…

I learned from my student government career that it starts off with just a small step to fall deeply in love with something that I spent most of my life with. Student government taught me to take risks by initiating change at school because it starts with me.…

As a result of this, I began to get more involved with the school.…
