"Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail"

Enthusiastic, leading, devoted, detail-oriented, resourceful, and observant are some of the qualities that have attributed to my success. I am blessed to be a Diversity Leadership Scholar and a Gates Millennium Scholar. With every experience, I always pay it forward and hope to inspire others to reach for the stars with the chance for opportunity.

I define myself as an "Opportunity Enthusiast," always searching for ways to improve myself professionally and personally regardless of potential barriers. I am a "Global Citizen" due to my endless desire to learn about different cultures, see the world, and better understand how to make it a more peaceful and just one. I am an "outler" for I am not afraid to stand out and stand up for what I believe in.
