DECA
Member
Throughout my four years in DECA, I created innovative startup business plans that addressed real-world problems. One of my projects, "Park It," was an app designed to streamline the process of finding parking spaces in neighborhoods and parking lots. Another, "HomeSafe," was a comprehensive home security solution that seamlessly integrated security features and productivity tools into one intuitive interface. I consistently qualified for the New York State competition, and in my junior year, I achieved a top ten ranking in the state, reflecting the strength and creativity of my work.
Hewlett Lacrosse
JV Captain
As the Junior Varsity Captain in tenth grade, I embraced leadership by motivating my teammates and fostering a sense of unity. Our teamwork led to 5 clean sheets in my freshman year and 7 in my sophomore year. In my junior year, I earned a starting spot on the varsity lacrosse team, where I continued to focus on building strong defensive strategies and deepening the bonds within our team. Lacrosse is more than a sport—it's a brotherhood where trust, teamwork, and resilience are essential to our success.
Hewlett H.S. Wrestling
Member
During the early years of high school, I was a member of the Hewlett Wrestling team, where I learned the true value of both teamwork and individual performance. Wrestling taught me the importance of self-discipline and resilience, while also emphasizing how each team member's effort contributes to the collective success. I continue to compete as part of the varsity team and plan to carry on during my senior year.
