In the beginning...

I was born in 2000. Pictured above is my mother taking me to visit Alcatraz Island as a baby, presumably inspiring a lifelong interest in the legal system.

Education: Part 1

I went to Wiregrass Ranch High School and graduated in 2018. At the time, these four years were the longest I had ever attended one school — my family had moved eight times before I was 14.

Passion for Public Service

I love lending my time to nonprofit and community service-based organizations for causes I am passionate about. My favorite volunteer experience was as a clinic escort at Tampa Women's Health Center.

What else?

I enjoy filmmaking, painting, creative writing and puzzles (especially sudoku). I also love to travel — my favorite place to go is Lebanon, where much of my extended family lives.
