Plans
I plan to continue my youth service this summer in North Carolina to help a Lutheran Camp which suffered from Hurricane Helene. I also plan to -sometime within the next couple years- travel to Japan and learn more about the culture that I have been learning about in class, and once I’m out of high school I plan to continue studying Japanese. I’m currently looking at colleges, specifically schools with Political Science and Business classes. Thank you for considering me for this award.
