Interests and Hobbies
My interests range from traveling to volunteering at inner-city after school programs and everything in-between. Originally being from the west coast, I started traveling at a young age back to the east coast to visit family and since I was younger, I have traveled all up and down the west coast. Going into my senior year of high school I was a part of a program called People to People and I traveled for three weeks to Australia, New Zealand, and Fiji. Last summer, I traveled with my family to Ireland and went up the west coast learning the history of my family. I am very much interested in the cultures of different countries and how our cultures are essentially different, but have the same meaning behind the intentions of their actions. I wish to travel more around the world studying the culture and different marketing skills of each place I visit.
Another one of my interests/hobbies is volunteering at an inner-city after school program called the Lenfest Center. I started out volunteering for one of my classes, but I fell in love with the atmosphere, the kids, and the messages that were in the center. They are trying to help make a safe place for kids to go after school that is educational and shows them a sense of family to get them out of the streets and to show the children the importance of education. Since they gave me such a perspective into their world and opened their program with open arms to me, I wanted to give something back to them and made a video explaining what the Lenfest Center is really all about.
