Rustic Falls Nature Camp is a beautiful camp in Burlington Wi. It provides getaway weekends for families with kids with cancer as well as group activity days for underprivileged youth. I have volunteered there for years; they need volunteers for helping to landscape the grounds, cooking for guests and housecleaning.

It is always a good experience of being in nature and feeling like I am helping out.

I was very excited to be inducted to the National French Honors Society. I am very proud of my progress in the French language and intend to continue improving.

I am the secretary of the club that focuses on fashion and sustainability. We encourage clothing swap between students and upcycling. We share tips on sewing and zine making. We also love exchanging our favorite thrift store experiences.

Jones College Prep has theatre performance twice a year. I have assisted in both costume design and run crew.

For costume designs, we tailor the clothing to fit the actors. We keep the costumes cleaned and pressed. We are at the ready to assist the actors change between scenes.

For run crew I help change the sets between scenes and bring out whatever props are needed.

I like feeling part of the team that does whatever needs to be done.

I am currently a Sophomore at Jones College Prep in Chicago's South Loop. I am studying in several Advanced Placement courses. I do love the academics of school, but I have a very creative side. I love sketch, draw and paint I have participated in art fairs and even sold a couple of my works.

• Worked effectively in fast-paced environments.
• Proven ability to learn quickly and adapt to new situations.
• Worked well in a team setting, providing support and guidance.

We studied the foundations of French fashion and culture. We attended classes in fashion history and even tried our hand at design. We studied textiles in Leon. We learned to navigate the city via the metro. It was an amazing experience and I learned so much.
