This year I am once again doing that R agnar and challenging myself to run a R agnar trail - same set up but a team of 8 women and we sleep in a tent between our running legs.

I hope to connect with the girls through discussion and sharing of real-life examples in hopes of providing some value to them as they progress in their journeys through life.

Camp CEO Bio L au ren Baker I have been in Girl Scouts my whole life. I started at the age of four and have been in love with scouting. I have a family of four, including my mother father brother and I. I also have a dog named dash and he is a happy little fur ball. F amily is everything to me. without my family, I couldn' t/ wouldn' t be in the position that I am now. My family has always been my number one supporter, especially during this time. Next fall I will be at the University of my choice and I am so excited but nervous. I have always been an independent young lady but now I will actually be outside of my parental nest. I plan to study business and start my own chain of restaurants and resorts. I write down all my ideas that I have for the future on my vision board, its one of my favorite hobbies to do with friends. It helps me sort all of the thoughts and spit it out and see it clearly.

What driv es y ou to b e inv olv ed in sc hool, c ommu nity ac tiv ities and/ or G irl S c ou ts?

I have always been independent and outgoing. Growing up in Atlanta and the surrounding that was all I saw. People taking ownership and pride in themselves. Being able to have some honor to their name. W hen I say that I am a Girl Scout to anyone, it intrigues them to want to know more about me. In just saying the Girl Scout name brings up a legacy of greatness that I strive to fulfill. That' s why I am so outgoing in school and Girl Scouts. I want to leave a legacy that serving my community, fixing problems I see in school and is a great passion of mine just like the people around me who inspire and I aspire to be. Being a leader in school is something that has always come naturally to me. W hen it came down to projects or just getting something plainly done, I was the girl that people called on.

What I am most looking forward to at Camp CEO: I hope to gain numerous t from Camp CEO. The idea of being able to socializ e and network while having fun. I will be surrounded by girls who share the same outlook on life. Everyone will be just as excited as I will be which means we will also share an experience like no other. Another exciting aspect of Camp CEO is talking to the mentors. Being able to talk to an adult that was once in my position is awesome. Having that first-hand advice that I have always sought right in front of you is a dream. I am definitely taking advantage of all the wisdom and knowledge that each mentor has. Their knowledge will help me for this year because I am starting a new chapter in my life. W ith college and actually getting out in the real new world, everything is happening at an exponential rate. So for me, I will take all the best advice they can give me

Camp CEO Bio J orry n Bellinger J orry n Bellinger was born on the fourth of July in 2002. Ever since that day, she has never stopped believing the fireworks were a celebration of her. Often described as a quick witted, enigmatic, old soul with a memory like an elephant. Her artistic talent and care for the environment became apparent at a very early age. A selfproclaimed vegetarian at the age of five, refusing to eat anything, “ that has a face� ! Moreover, no object is off limits in becoming something more than its original intention; from squeez ing color from flowers and using it as paint or collecting sticks from the yard and converting them into a beautiful hanging chandelier.

As a Junior, at Sprayberry High School and a member of the Girl Scouts for the past eleven years, she continues to explore, develop and emerge into her true self. Now a vegan, creative with deep passions rooted in social and political activism who pushes the boundaries of the norm by constantly urging others to broaden their perspectives on the status quo. Jorryn' s mission is to change the world.

What driv es y ou to b e inv olv ed in sc hool, c ommu nity ac tiv ities and/ or G irl S c ou ts?

Art and Activism are an integral part of my life. A stranger would mistakenly view me as a pack rat, because it is difficult for me to let things go. Everything can be repurposed to be something more meaningful than what was originally intended; the possibilities are endless. Art is a powerful tool to evoke social change. Every piece of art created impacts the world; inciting emotion, inspiration, or to make a statement to support a cause.

An equal passion to art is my interest in social issues and politics. In my opinion, positive social change can be anything that makes a current situation better, no matter who or what it affects or whether the change is small or big.

Over the years, several opportunities allowed me to intermingle my two passions. I was a member of One L ove Generation for three years. This organiz ation encouraged high school students to influence social change through art service projects. Subsequently, I was selected to take an international mission trip to Guanacaste in L iberia, Costa R ica.

There we visited a small performing arts school. W e interacted one on one with local students, and painted a beautiful mural.

W hen learning didn’t come easy, Sydney worked hard in school, worked on her organiz ation and paid attention to the details. She challenged herself to try new things, step outside the box and was able to see herself succeed in new areas.

Some may see her quiet side but she doesn’t shy away from opportunities to grow into the person she desires to be. Sydney has a dream to one day work in the health industry teaching others the importance of fitness, good nutrition and overall wellness to be successful.

F rom the three v alu es inc lu ded in ou r mission statement, whic h do y ou feel most passionate ab ou t and why ?

I am most passionate about the value Character because it shows the kind of person I am no matter what I achieve in life. It is what will set me apart from others and show that I care about the way I handle myself in things that I do. In today' s world, so many people focus on likes and social media posts that we really don' t know about the real person. I enjoy social media too, but I know that it' s important to have real relationships that I value and respect. I want to reach high goals but I want people to know they can count on me to be a friend or do my part. I want to be genuine and do a good job on things so I can be proud of the results and others can be too.

Camp CEO Bio L arissa Brehm Hi, my name is L arissa Brehm. I am a go getter. I love to be involved in things like debate, speech, Girl Scouts, babysitting, acting, being creative, sewing , cooking, thriving in school and, being involved at my church. I am also my class' s social chair. I have always been outgoing, extraverted and, pretty much a social butterfly. This year, I have been on a debate team where I have learned many things about debating and how to write a speech. This has also helped me understand what happens in court. This is especially important to me because my parents are getting a divorce right now. I not only learned about debating but, I have also learned how to sew and started my own small business. I sell scrunches to the girls at my school. My business name is L arissa' s Ties. W hen I started my business, I did not think that I would learn anything. I was wrong. W hen I started my business I not only learn about how to sew better scrunches but, I also learned the valuable lesson of marketing. I learned how to sell with reasonable prices and how to cater to my consumers. I learned what my consumers like and now I make more things that they prefer. At the moment, I am actually working to buy myself air pods. I love doing many things but, being at church is one of my favorite things to do. My church youth group is always doing fun activities like going to Get Air, going camping, swimming and going tubing. W e also have fun devotionals. In the future, I hope to be a judge, or a lawyer. I hope to do this because I enjoy negotiating my way into getting things. In the future, I would like to use this skill for good. All in all, I very much enjoy hanging out with my friends, being with people, and working hard to make myself some extra cash.

F rom the three v alu es inc lu ded in ou r mission statement, whic h do y ou feel most passionate ab ou t and why ?

I am most passionate about all 3 values. I value courage because I believe that if you do not have this, you will not be able to live your life to the fullest extent. If you have no courage, you cannot succeed. I am passionate about confidence because without confidence, how are you supposed to get your voice heard? I believe that every person should have confidence to also feel good about themselves. I believe that if you doubt your beauty or self-worth, you are not going to value yourself as much. I lastly feel passionate about character because I believe if you are not moral, that you can damage relationships with loved ones like family and friends.

I am very excited to be a member of this year' s Camp CEO! ! !

F rom the three v alu es inc lu ded in ou r mission statement, whic h do y ou feel most passionate ab ou t and why ?

Character, that is something that we all need. If you have great character, you have the ability to become leader and people will follow you. Having character will lead you to greatness in the future and can help you with your confidence and courage. W hile, courage and confidence are both important, character is the base of them both. Having character shows that you don' t just do the right thing in front of people, but when no one is looking. Character shows that you' re doing something because you care and you want to do it, and not because someone told you to.

What driv es y ou to b e inv olv ed in sc hool, c ommu nity ac tiv ities, and/ or G irl S c ou ts?

W hat drives me, what gives me the motivation to be a part of school, community service, and Girl Scouts is the learning aspect. In school, I' m able to learn something new every day in all my classes, and I love all my friends. I also love going to school, because my dance and acting classes are where I can really express myself and show my talent. F or community service, I love the idea that I will be able to help someone or something in need. I can take my time and give back to my community and provide my services. Girl Scouts makes me feel like I have a second family, because in our troop we are all really close to each other. Also, the different activities we participate in and the different ways to learn badges is fun to me.

There are many things that have prompted me to be involved in school and community activities, mainly because I enjoy what I do in each of them. I have been involved in numerous school sports ( track, volleyball & cheerleading) during middle and high school for fitness. During my Senior year, I have had the pleasure of being co-captain of the cheerleading squad. It has been lots of fun coming out of my shell to help the crowd show school spirit. Over several years, I participated on the school' s Praise team, because I enjoy singing and I loved working with fellow singers. W e even had the great fortune of recording a praise cd. I enjoy working with children and have worked as a summer camp counselor in the past. Currently, I volunteer on occasion at the local library as a summer program helper. It is fun helping provide fun summer activities to young children. I have been a Girl Scout for four years old as a budding Daisy. W hat primarily drives me to be involved in Girl Scouts is that it allows girls the ability to do anything. Girl Scouts is a program where girls can be leaders and be surrounded by like-minded people who all want to make the world a better place. W e start by making a better place in our community. It is a safe place to try new things. The program has three high awards that allows girls to create a meaningful project to address issues important to the scout. The opportunities presented in Girl Scouts is a starting point to something greater. Being around other girls who are ambitious and determined gives me energy.

Camp CEO Bio A y oka D ray ton

My name is Ayoka Drayton. I am 15 years old. I identify as Caribbean-American. The best way to tell you about myself is to illustrate my mindset. W hen we are little kids, everyone asks us what we want to be when we grow up. W e might' ve said a firefighter, police officer, doctor, singer, or dancer. I' ve wanted to be plenty of things but my goal always remained the same.

That goal was to help as many people as much as possible till the day I die. I think the question we should' ve been asked was " How do you want to be when you grow up? " My whole life I have been surrounded by people who loved me, but those same people grew to anger too quickly. It didn' t take me long to realiz e I didn' t want to be like the rest of my family, whom claimed our anger was genetic. W hen I grow up, I want to be happy and kind. I am happy and kind. W ho or how I want to be is who I am because every day I am getting better and growing. I was born in Trinidad & Tobago, so I come from a diverse and openminded background. My parents and brother taught me the importance of making the right decisions and people are affected by your decisions. They taught me that anger and hatred don' t do anything but feed the ugliest parts of yourself. They taught me, my mother especially, how powerful love is. I learned on my own that being passionate about something is important. I learned that I have to believe in something, especially myself. I learned the importance of forgiveness, no matter how bad you may be hurting or how I also learned that people are more alike than they are unlike. I also learned that God isn' t as nitpicky as we believe, and he wants us to love unconditionally. My lessons learned have made me who I am.

What driv es y ou to b e inv olv ed in sc hool, c ommu nity ac tiv ities and/ or G irl S c ou ts?

I want to make a difference and a change in my community. I cannot do that if I am not involved and I cannot depend on someone else to make that change for me. I am in involved in tennis, Beta Club, and Girl Scouts because I want to do as much good as possible and make my dreams a reality.

What do y ou want to do after high sc hool?

I plan on going to college, then medical school, and earn my doctorate. Afterwards, I plan on completing my residency to become a psychiatrist. Then, I will specializ e to become a forensic psychiatrist. I want to have my own practice and focus on changing the stigma on mental health and how it is dealt with.

What driv es y ou to b e inv olv ed in sc hool, c ommu nity ac tiv ities and/ or G irl S c ou ts?

W hat drives me to be involved in school are my passions and ambitions. My greatest desire at the moment is to get into a very prestigious engineering school, so as a result of that, I am very involved in our robotics club and my academics. My love for robotics and engineering comes from my love of creating things and solving problems. Taking part in the robotics team allows me to solve a problem in my way, and it is so gratifying to see my efforts with a robot pay off. I also have a passion for the humanities, which drives me to be involved in our L atin club, our orchestra program, and GY SO. Playing my instrument often serves as an emotional outlet and as a tool of expression, which gives me the drive to pursue it. I also am fascinated by history, which is why I have a passion for L atin and all of antiquity. W hat drives me to be involved in Girl Scouts and community service is my desire to create good in this world. I am often angry at the world, as at times it can be so cruel to innocent people. Sometimes, this anger makes me feel hopeless, but it drives me to do whatever I can to make the world a better place, no matter how big or small my effort is.

What I am most looking forward to at Camp CEO? I hope to develop the ability to navigate male dominated spaces and to further my leadership capabilities. However, the thing I hope to gain the most is inspiration from strong women who are undoubtedly leaders in their field.

Once I get my degree, I aim to begin practicing in the underprivileged and neglected areas of the globe.

Our affluent suburbs overflow with doctors for every affliction and body part under the sun, but examination of places as close as the less wealthy parts of the city reveal a urgent and pressing scarcity of quality medical expertise, coupled with a genuine concern and care for the patient beyond a price tag or prescription. Every patient is a life with a story and a reason that they need to be here. Every case cured is an extended, new lease on a potentially debilitated life. Being a doctor isn’t about making money; it’s about the chance you get to directly impact someone’s life, and this life changing role is one that I want to be a part of.

As I grew into the young lady I am today I took charge and faced challenges head on. I applied for more learning opportunities because I believe you can gain knowledge from everyone and take advantage of any opportunity you get. The scariest challenge was finding out I had diabetes. This challenge didn’t hold me back and I found out last year that I didn’t have to take insulin anymore and the doctors couldn’t find any more symptoms of diabetes. I was overjoyed. I felt like God said I have another purpose.

Camp CEO Bio V ic toria J ac kson My name is V ic toria J ac kson, I' m 16 years old and my life has been a very eventful one, to say the least. W hen I was in kindergarten my house was foreclosed the week of my sixth birthday and it changed my life forever. F rom that day my family and I didn' t have a solid place to live for about eight years. This took a toll on me in my social life because I would lie about the things I had and the fun things I' d do just to fit in with peers. In January of 2014, my family moved into the house that we' re still in today but I began to struggle elsewhere in my life. W hen I was in 6th grade, I began to deal with self-hate because I didn' t look like the other girls in my grade at the time. I thought I was ugly and felt like I didn' t belong. I talked with one of the youth leaders at my church and she encouraged me by telling me that I was beautiful and then she told me that I shouldn' t judge myself based off of others because it' s not healthy and God made me just the way he wanted me to be therefore I was perfect in his eyes. Now I love myself fully and believe that I am who God says I am which is beautiful in his sight. I also stopped speaking false truths about my life and embrace what I have instead of chasing after what others have.

Courage, or both moral and physical courage. Moral courage means acting on one' s values in the face of potential or actual opposition and negative consequences. Courage is the secret sauce that allows you to act despite your fears and sometimes I have fears.

Camp CEO Bio H imani K alra My name is H imani K alra and I have been a Girl Scout for 9 years.

I have many interests with fencing being my favorite. I have always been among the top fifteen national ranked US fencers for my age-group, ever since I was ten years old. F encing has instilled physical and mental discipline in me, given me close friendships and role models, and taught me the importance of balance – balancing sports practice with school homework, the fun of winning with the disappointments of losing.

Part of me is a geeky Math and Science buff. Tinkering with things, working on lab experiments in school, and studying formulas and abstract concepts is something I enjoy. I’m on my school Biology Olympiad and Math team and also help other students through Mu Alpha Theta tutoring. I came 2nd in the State “ Y ou Be The Chemist” competition and submitted projects for the Georgia R egional Science and Engineering F air and the Toshiba Exploravision Science F air which have received awards. I also write and design for two Science magaz ines at school, “ V eritas” and “ Embryo” and hope to eventually enter a career in a STEM field and mentor kids through science fair projects while I am in college.

What I am most looking forward to at Camp CEO? In my small elementary school, I had the same English teacher for my third, fourth, and fifth grades. She would often put inspirational quotes on the board which we would discuss in class. One of these quotes was, “ Prepare the child for the path, not the path for the child” .

W hen we discussed what it meant, it left a strong impression and made me realiz e that I would need to work on myself as I grow up to “ prepare myself for the path” . In a few years, I will leave the cocoon of my home and parents. I am at an important stage of life where I have to work hard on my academics, balance the demands of my extra-curricular activities, and also make decisions about colleges and what I want to become in my future. I am planning my next steps.

Through the Camp CEO experience. I am hoping to gain advice and encouragement from successful corporate leaders about skills that I will need to do well in life. Each of these women has handled challenges. Each has had to find ways to do things, how to present themselves, work with others in a group setting, handle conflict, speak before an audience, and make sensible decisions. L istening to their life stories and the challenges they have dealt with will help me draw inspiration about how to become better in my own life. Camp CEO represents a unique opportunity for me to learn new things and have a better direction and vision for my future.

I have a creative side which loves writing, dance and music. I was an avid journal writer when young, and choosing to become a reporter for my school newspaper “ The Bi-L ine” has allowed me to rekindle the passion of writing and been incredibly rewarding. My love of writing combined with my love of Science has extended to writing scientific research papers on subjects ranging from ADHD to Mars exploration to Childhood obesity treatment which have received Honorable Mentions at the Toshiba Exploravision Science F air and Georgia R egional Science & Engineering F air. I have also been awarded the Steven W . Surbaugh Award by my school for the most outstanding girl student in Math and Science during middle school.

I love dancing and am learning K athak which is one of the eight classical dance forms of India. It is a form of storytelling - depicting old Hindu scriptures through the medium of dance. I am about to earn my V isharad which is the culmination of 10 years of training and 7 levels of exams recogniz ing a student with a graduation certification in K athak classical dance. I also enjoy playing the bassoon in the Georgia Y outh Symphony Orchestra each Sunday afternoon where my favorite memory is of performing the challenging first and fourth movements of Beethoven' s F ifth Symphony with fellow musicians and receiving a standing ovation at the Bailey Performance Center. Dance and music are my creative outlets from the rigor of high school academics and have given me close friendships and fun times.

Through Camp CEO, I am excited to meet inspirational corporate leaders and rolemodels and hope to learn valuable life-lessons through their mentorship.

What driv es y ou to b e inv olv ed in sc hool, c ommu nity ac tiv ities and/ or G irl S c ou ts?

My love of exploring the unknown and experiencing all that the world has to offer is what drives me to be involved wherever I go. At school, I find pleasure in unraveling the doings of calculus, discovering the workings of chemistry, and finding my voice in language. My passion for discovering the unknown is what drives me to serve my community; I want everyone to experience what the world has to offer as I’m able to do. I love sharing what I have, which is why I teach children at the Drake House. F rom a young age, I’ve had the habit of donating to those in need on my birthday instead of receiving gifts, including making and distributing lunch to the homeless, raising money to build schools in third world countries, and buying supplies for underprivileged schools. Girl Scouts is a platform that leads me to a variety of opportunities, from teaching robot programming at STEM Expo to organiz ing W orld Thinking Day for hundreds of girls.

Camp CEO Bio K ay la M agee My life started out in foster care. My biological mother was unable to care for herself or her children. I was adopted by my mother at four months of age. I have struggled with the idea of being adopted. My mind and my emotions often tell me that I am not wanted and not worthy because my biological mother did not want me. I however, have chosen not to be defined by my birth or my bloodline. I choose instead to be defined by who I am. My character, my hopes and dreams for a successful future are what drive me to be the best me that I can possibly be.

F rom the three v alu es inc lu ded in ou r mission statement, whic h do y ou feel most passionate ab ou t and why ?

I feel the most passionate about character. This is because character is who you are, your character defines you. Sure, you can act courageous, and yes you can act confident, but who are you really? People say character is what you do when no one is looking, and I very much so agree. W ho are you when no one is around? W e all are guilty of warping our person based on who we are surrounded by. But the purest most genuine you is what makes up your character, and that is who you are. Y our character determines how you will treat others. It determines what you will and will not do in order to achieve success in your career. Simply put, your character determines the direction of your life.

What driv es y ou to b e inv olv ed in sc hool, c ommu nity ac tiv ities and/ or G irl S c ou ts?

The desire for myself to succeed drives me to be involved in helping and contributing to my community, involving myself in my troop and looking out for my sisters in GS, and being attentive, punctual, and precise in my everyday school life. I believe that my drive to be involved in my community emphasiz es my empathy for those around me. W hat people have, or lack there of, drives me to want to help people less fortunate than myself.

What I am most looking forward to at Camp CEO? W hat I hope to gain is knowledge. K nowledge from 3 0 outstanding women who pave the road to success for young girls like me. I seek the first-hand experiences and struggles of having a title such as ' The CEO' and there is no one better to be gifted this information from than from the women themselves who hold these titles. I want to know what it takes, what I need to do, how to present myself, and the things I need to obtain and/ or know to be awarded such a high level of management.

At the beginning, it was my mom. She is my troop leader and she taught us to give back and to do for others. Now that I am old enough I feel the same way. I try to keep an eye on all my flutes in band. I am a very caring person and sometimes I try to make others happy over myself. I feel that everyone in a community should help each other and that everyone is special and important. I love that America is a big mix of people and I love learning about different cultures in my community and elsewhere. W e volunteer at a center that provides food and clothing for those in need. I feel this is important because it can happen to anyone. An illness or job loss which my family has personally gone through can spell financial disaster. Everyone has a different story and I feel that we all deserve a little help and we should pay it forward. I am often the one my friends come to when they are upset and I hope that I can help them feel just a little bit better, which makes me feel like I have helped.

I took a psychology class at school last semester and I became so interested in learning more about the brain and how and why people do things. I have decided to pursue Psychology at Berry College and go on to my masters and my doctorate. I want to open a practice for children because I love children and in my area there are hardly any child psychologists and I believe mental health for children is very important especially those that have experienced trauma in their lives.

Camp CEO Bio J ay len S mith W hile I have memories before I was a Girl Scout, most of my childhood memories involve me serving others, creating crafts and camping with my Girl Scout Troop. I have been a Girl Scout since I was in K indergarten, joining Troop 181 as a Daisy. There, I met girls who would follow me throughout middle and high school and become some of my closest friends. As we grew older, our Troop grew as well as we merged with Troop 10101.

F or a while, younger girls were a part of the Troop, and we older girls often presented information to them and helped them as we completed Journeys.

Growing up as a Girl Scout didn’t only make for a delightful and fun childhood, but also taught me valuable life skills, including friendship, responsibility, respect, confidence, character, and courage. I completed requirements I am nearing the end to earn the Bronz e award, earned the Y oung W oman of Distinction for my Silver award, and now I’m in the process of completing my Gold Award. I am nearing the end of my Girl Scout career, but I know I will always cherish and grow from the lessons Scouting has taught me.

W hat I’ve learned from Scouting, I have had the opportunity to apply to my life to succeed academically. I am on the National Honor Societies for Spanish, English, and Journalism, and I desire to one day be a bilingual psychologist, using my knowledge of both English and Spanish to help twice the amount of patients I would if I only spoke English.

What driv es y ou to b e inv olv ed in sc hool, c ommu nity ac tiv ities and/ or G irl S c ou ts?

The relationships I make with people in my school, community, and through Girl Scouts motivates me to be more active. My freshman year in high school, outside of my youth group at church, I stuck to my studies, didn' t join any clubs, and barely went out with friends. Now, as a junior, I am in multiple school clubs, even being V ice President of my school' s Book Club, am completing my Gold Award, am an active member of my high school orchestra, and am a member of my school' s yearbook staff, where I was inducted into Q uill and Scroll, the National Honor Society for Journalism. Through all of these, I have made unforgettable memories and made countless valuable friendships that I would not have made otherwise. F or my Gold Award project. I am teaching technology classes to the active seniors at Christian City. The relationships I have made with the ladies who attend my classes have far exceeded any other benefit that my project may have in the future.

Camp CEO Bio S arah Wood S arah Wood is a junior in high school with an interest in everything around her. She approaches things with a sense of wonder and curiosity for the day to day. One day she hopes to pursue a career in science but at the moment she enjoys learning as much as she can in high school. In her free time Sarah likes to draw, design, write and read ( with a goal of 5 2 books this year) . She volunteers at F ernbank Natural History Museum and works at a neighborhood art studio. She loves working with younger kids especially at camps, Sunday school, and babysitting thinking they have a unique perspective ( and tend to always be funny) . L ife is like a big mystery and she knows she can’t solve it alone, so working with others she hopes to work towards a better future.

What driv es y ou to b e inv olv ed in sc hool, c ommu nity ac tiv ities and/ or G irl S c ou ts?

I think communities are important and that every person has a unique perspective. Be it at school, work, or church I strive to get to know folks and be present in the experience. I never know when something unexpected may present its self. There is always so much to gain and so much to give and that’s what drives me to be passionate. I think it goes back to the art I do, I know that no great work can be created in a vacuum. I believe that this idea applies to the self, I can’t grow on my own. I need insights from different people for that.

And as much as I gain from others I try to give back. I' m always driven because I like to do my activities fully, not just because I think that it’d look good on an application. I think that’s the secret to being happy, to do things because they make you feel whole. Or at least believe that doing something is making one' s self or the world better. Its what I consider when I' m volunteering, working, or just doing something for fun. F or the most part, my answer is yes, and I' m proud of that.

What do y ou want to do after high sc hool?

I know I want to go to college and double major in biology ( or some science) and visual arts.

Hopefully then going on to grad school for biology. After that I’m unsure of the job I want to take after that, there is a multitude of opportunities that I likely don’t even know of now.

After high school I want to go to college as a chance to explore these opportunities. W ho knows though, I could end up in anything from lab work to forensics to therapy. I think its a matter of the path life puts me on and the one I’m willing to pursue.
