My most significant leadership experience would be when I was in the Girls Varsity Tennis Team. I had been in the tennis team during my highschool years, for 2 years. During that time I learned a lot about being a leader, such as what it means to lead others, and what qualities a leader should have. When I first started playing tennis I started at the position on 2nd doubles, to me I took it as that I was not good enough to play against an opponent by myself on the court. Which was entirely true, because when I began playing I was not any good whatsoever.…

One way I plan to demonstrate leadership and service is through volunteering to be a sixth grade camp counselor.

I remember my Link Crew leaders during my freshman year and they were very helpful and informative. I also hope to be same positive role model for incoming freshman who are nervous or have questions.…

“Kevin Marx will be next year’s Science Bowl captain,” the club advisor announced. It was a cold February afternoon and our Science Bowl team was returning from the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory, where the competition was hosted. Although our team did not make it past the third round, everyone knew they did their best and were excitedly discussing our last-minute victory over a competing school. As soon as Ms. Stephen -- our advisor -- finished her statement, the bus erupted with applause and words of congratulations floated through the air.

My leadership experience began when my supervisor and his colleagues had an important meeting to attend and had no one sitting in on the office for intake office hours, so he asked me and another intern, Isaiah, to sit in from 9 AM-3PM. My supervisor taught us the main component of this position in 10 minutes. At first, I was nervous because I was new to the agency and it was my first time performing front desk duties. But after a couple of clients I began to get more comfortable and confident with the process because I had performed similar duties when I was in my cubicle. At this moment I felt like I was a leader because I was put in a position where I had minimum training, but still could take control of the office duties, and according to my supervisor, my performance level was beyond expectations.…

When I was in my middle school years, the nickname of Star Super emerged from the high school football team. The origin behind said nickname came from the captain; who was referred to as Super Star. The reasoning behind why I was given this nickname was never known, but I do have a couple of ideas. My first idea was that he was my role model, so I would try to copy anything and everything he did. Whether it was my attempts to copy his on- field play, his leadership, or even his humor, I tried to be just like him.…
