I volunteered at parent teacher conferences held at the school and the Terry Fox Run and Holiday Bazaar held at the College of the North Atlantic. In addition to my internship and successfully planning a youth forum, I was part of the Graduation Committee and Student Council. I also branched from the student council and opposition, The New Voice. I felt that student council hadn’t put their hearts into reforms the students wanted and took upon the initiative.

My main focus while attending school is to obtain extensive and beneficial skills that can contribute to future success.
