I am a student currently living in Troy, MI and attending Troy High School. My interests range from hobbies such as traveling to listening to music. I also play volleyball and find my education to be very important to me.

I consider myself to be apart of quite a large family and in this family of 6, I happen to be the youngest. While being the youngest has both its pros and cons, I can confidently say that my siblings and parents have shaped the person I am today. With each sibling possessing their own unique qualities and characteristics and with growing up around them my whole life, I have found that I share many of their attributes. For example, from my oldest sister, I would say I share her compassion and empathy towards other people, however I wouldn't say I have the same amount of patience that she has, seeing that she is a preschool teacher after all. As for my older brother, after looking at what we have both achieved through our athletics, I would say we share a love for sports. While we don't play the same sports, we both seem to always be busying ourselves with something to keep us active and on our feet. Lastly, from my other older sister, I'd say we share our independent characteristic. While we love a good social hour as much as the next person, we both seem to enjoy our times to ourselves and the ability to rely on ourselves.

Overall, while a large family can, most of the time, be quite overwhelming, I personally would say that they have shaped the person I am today and that the pros heavily outweigh the cons.
