- I traveled to Europe when I was 15 years old for a mission trip, and I was there for 6 weeks. My group partook in many different facets of outreach: handing out food, helping build homes, helping clean houses/yards, etc. - I was held back in 6th grade, but I ended up being the valedictorian!
Ultimately, my passion for wildlife and conservation has been rooted in the fact that I want to encourage people to see the necessity for aiding wildlife rehabilitation and biodiversity management.
