I'm a grade 12 student at East Northumberland Secondary School, in the small-town of Brighton, ON. I love being involved in many things at my school, because it's such an amazing school to be a part of! This year I represent my school as Prime Minister of Student Government, as well as chairing the Relay for Life Student Committee, and participate in Community Challenge and Science Alliance. I play school rugby and wrestling, and ball hockey in the summers. Next year I plan to go to Ottawa University, to begin my career as a nurse! I'm also going through schooling with the military, in the ROTP. For the year of 2009, I represent my hometown of Brighton as Miss Teen Brighton, and have been fortunate to win last year's award of "Most Outstanding Youth" for Brighton. My partner, Jennine Boyce, and I hope to represent Brighton to the best of our ability in the Canada Wide Science Fair, and hope to enstill a change globally with our project, BioChar, and the environmental potential it carries! |
