My name is Megan Schlorff. I am fifteen years old and I have lived in Hanover, Ontario all my life. I attend grade nine at Sacred Heart High School in Ontario where I am an honours student. I am a member of the school band where I play the clarinet. By being a member of the band I enjoyed travelling to various elementary schools to perform, playing at school assemblies and performing in Sacred Heart's annual Cabaret. Outside of school I enjoy step dancing. I have been dancing since I was four years old and I thouroughly enjoy participating in this hobby that has taken my all across Ontario to compete in competitions where I have won numerous awards. I also enjoy spending time with family and friends, scrapbooking, photography and playing the piano. I am currently interested pursuing a career in medicine particularly in the field of pediatrics or obsetrics. I am very much anticipating spending a week at my third CWSF. Previously I have won an honourable mention and a gold medal. I can't wait to see the amazing discoveries of other young scientists and I am eager to get pin trading. |
