About Me

I am a senior at Althoff Catholic High School. I developed an interest in Belleville CEO ever since I asked about it during a school tour of Althoff Catholic High School in 8th Grade after seeing a sign with the program’s logo. I have a strong interest in learning more about business such as the financial aspect, networking aspect, and scaling of a business’s operations which is why I took CEO.   I dedicate my time first and foremost to academics but I make sure to balance them with extracurricular activities and time to relax after each day. At the beginning of fall, I am working on my resolution for Model U.N. for November and attending Math Team meets. In the winter, I am doing Scholar Bowl as a Team Captain this year. Throughout the year I am an active member of my parish working as an Altar Server and as a Sacristan working to set up weekday Mass at Althoff Catholic High School. Additionally, I am an active member in the National Honor Society, St. Clair County Teen Court, and Rotary Club. Whenever I have free time, I usually hang out with my friends either in person or online playing video games or discussing a wide array of different topics. Additionally, I like to go on walks occasionally while listening to music to relax and enjoy building computers.   When I graduate from high school, I plan on majoring in Computer Engineering with either a double major in Finance or Electrical Engineering depending on the programs offered at the university I choose to attend. While attending university, I plan on applying to internships and conducting research whenever opportunities are available. With the knowledge and skills I will learn from CEO and my majors, I will potentially start my own business during my lifetime or continue to advance my career. I have not yet decided which university I will be attending, but my top picks for which ones I wish to attend are Washington University in St. Louis, the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, and the University of Notre Dame.
