Maple Grove Senior High
Junior, 2027
 
I am involved with a lot of Golf. I am a part of the MG Girls Golf Team and am so proud to represent my school! In school I am a MGSH Yearbook Editor, it is my first year involved with the program/class. I have 2 sisters and have taken photos of both of their hockey teams. Photography is a way I love to share my time and talent with people. I am also proud to say that I am passionate about volunteering through the ALS Foundation.
 
 
I want to help people and bring about real change, especially within our wonderful community of Maple Grove. Another main thing that has attracted me to the JR program is the community. I have always wanted to be a part of a group of likeminded people who want to add positivity to the world.
 
 
I plan to attend a 4-year university and major in Pre-Law, eventually become a Health and Medical Lawyer. My main motivation toward becoming a lawyer is helping people through tough times and accomplishing justice.

I had a great experience last year and wanted to stay involved. I love the community built around Rotary and it fuels my passion for volunteering and connecting with others. I have more free time this year with PSEO, and I believe stepping up to be the leader of JR was the perfect opportunity for me.
