Biography
I am currently attending Sir Winston Churchill in the grade 11 IB program. My favorite subjects in school are science and math. I also work as a lifeguard at a local pool and participate in a few lifeguard competitions throughout the year.When I'm not at school or at work, I swim on the Thunder Bay Thunderbolts. In my spare time, I like to read fiction books and play my clarinet. My favorite season is summer because I really enjoy hiking, swimming, camping, rock climbing, and hanging out with my family. I usually spend my weekends playing board games at my uncle's house. (Monopoly is always a favorite) After high school, I want to attend university, but I don't know what I want to do.....yet.

Abstract:The purpose of this experiment was to test whether a biofilter for growing food in a confined space can breakdown pollutants and remove harmful bacteria from both grey water and sewage so that the water can be reused. A second objective was to show that biofilters can clean water, grow food, produce energy, and clean the air.
