| Unlike most teenagers, academics is where I love to spend my time. Studying, learning and pursuing curiosity are the things I love the most. While I am not studying, I can be found expressing school spirit through student council and the Nova Scotia International Student Program where I teach international students about our country and culture. From organizing activities to recruiting new members, I can be found doing it all! I have danced with the Halifax Dance Intensive Training Program in the Young Company as well as trained with the School of Toronto Dance Theatre. Growing up in a strict genre of dance, mainly ballet, I adapted to time management and striving for excellence at a young age. My advice to other students thinking about doing a project would be; stop thinking and start doing! |
