Biography
I am a grade 12 student at Fountain Academy in Halifax, NS. I did this project to get more involved in my interests of medicine and biology. I plan on studying arts and sciences in university. Outside of these interests, I sail I420, competing internationally. I also compete in cross country and track out of my school. I involve myself in school musical and drama productions as well.
