I have about three years of retail experience, including serving as a manager, where I developed leadership, customer service, and team management skills. Academically, I was a member of the National Honor Society in both elementary and high school, and I participated in the rigorous International Baccalaureate (IB) program during high school. Now, as a college student, I am an honor scholar and actively involved as a student leader. These experiences have helped me build a strong foundation in leadership, responsibility, and academic excellence, preparing me for future professional success.

Most Memorable Moment:

My most memorable college experience occurred during Homecoming 2024 at Livingstone College when gospel artist Tye Tribbett performed. The event was part of the college's Stonecoming festivities, which included a Praise Party and Gospel Jubilee featuring Tribbett. The atmosphere was electric as students, alumni, and faculty gathered to celebrate and enjoy the uplifting music. Tribbett's dynamic performance, characterized by his high-energy stage presence and powerful vocals, left the audience inspired and energized. This event exemplified the strong sense of community and cultural pride that defines the HBCU experience and remains a highlight of my college journey.
