I have been a member of a summer swim team for about 10 years. The pool I swim for is Sylvan Park, located in Natrona Heights. I have grown up with an amazing group of people and swimmers throughout my years on the team. This upcoming summer I will be a senior on the swim team, meaning that it is my last year on the team. I am both excited and sentimental about it. I am so happy and grateful for the time I’ve spent on the team and forever grateful for the close group of friends I have gained from it, but at the same time I am sad to end this life journey of mine., Member – 4 Years

I have been modeling for about 4 years. I started my modeling journey by attending Barbizon of PA’s modeling and acting classes at the beginning of 2020. I then got selected by the overall Barbizon agency to attend a competition in Disney Springs, Florida. This competition consisted of thousands of models of all ages, heights, etc., from all over the country. Following the competition I was scouted by some of the hundreds of agencies that were there scouting models and actors. Ever since then I have traveled to different states, including Alabama, Louisiana, Florida, Georgia, and New York, to walk in runway shows. Modeling has been one of my favorite things to pursue. I have made so many amazing friends over the years and have gained so much wisdom and experience from it. I am so grateful for my family, especially my mother, who has fully supported me throughout my entire modeling journey., Model – 4 Years

The summer between my freshman and sophomore years of high school I went on a mission trip with All Saints Parish youth group through an organization called Catholic Heart Work Camp. We went to Cumberland, Maryland and were there for about a week. While there, I along with my group helped to build easily accessible flowerbeds for a group of special needs women who lived together in a women’s home. We also went to a YMCA, that helped to house the less fortunate, and we repainted their outdated hallways and helped to clean up the overall environment of the complex. This trip was an experience like no other that I have endured. Seeing the grateful and kind faces of everyone that we helped was truly such a heartwarming feeling. I hope to be able to help others in this way as I grow up., Member – 1 Year
