I’m a learner. Whether it’s in an educational setting where I strive to expand my knowledge in the classes that I take, researching and writing on issues that I feel strongly about on my own, or simply listening to stories during a conversation, I always try to learn from the world around me.

Currently, I’m a high school senior attending a conservative Christian private school while residing in one of the most progressive towns in Massachusetts. Living in an environment where I’m exposed to many different perspectives has allowed me to explore the intersections of a diverse set of opinions. I constantly am in a state of learning by being open to learning from anyone and anything. My goal is to learn how to neither be pulled to the left nor right; instead, using the maieutic method to find the intersection and move forward.
