service projects I found that I got a
sense of satisfaction doing service that
I didn’t really get from anywhere else.
Along with that a few brothers were
involved in the Exec Board of Team
Buzz which allowed me to get my
foot in the door. Those two factors led
me to volunteering to be on the Team
Buzz Exec Committee.
What type of experience did you
gain from your internships?
I’ve been lucky enough to
experience both ends of the spectrum
when comes to the good and bad with
internships, which I think is great.
It allows me to get a head start on
finding out what I want to do for the
rest of my life and it gives me an
opportunity to meet some other people
my age from all over.
Outside of school what do you do
for fun?
I enjoy doing anything that lets me
be outside or just active in general.
I don’t particularly enjoy one thing
over another, but instead I go through
phases of liking certain activities. Like had a reunion
right now, I’m really enjoying playing
volleyball and going skiing whenever
I get the chance. My dad is also an avid
fly-fisherman, so I’ll always go with
him when he wants a fishing partner.
I also really enjoy playing the piano
and listening to music in general.
