BIOGRAPHY:I live in Grantham, North Carolina with my parents Kirby and Cathy and my brother Kelby. I have attended Rosewood since Kindergarten. I have enjoyed being president of our school's Future Business Leaders of America chapter since my junior year. My sophomore year, I competed at the national level and won third place in Introduction to Business Communication. I have served as captain of our school's Fellowship of Christian Athletes since my junior year. I have also been involved with my school's FFA chapter, and this year I am serving as the student advisor. I have been a member of the National Honor Society, the Rosewood Show Choir, the Future Teachers of America, Wayne County Junior Leadership, and the Mayor's Youth Council. I have taken dance lessons for nine years, and I was also a member of the school swim team. The summer after my junior year, I was selected to attend Governor's School West for Natural Science. All of these organizations and programs have helped me grow and develop as a person and a leader. I will be attending Campbell University in the fall where I will be majoring in English and Communications.
