I chose to be a Global Scholar because of my curiosity of the world around me. I began participating in global dialogue sessions since I was in middle school so I knew that applying into this program in high school was where I could truly take advantage of all global experience opportunities. I truly enjoyed the idea that my education at the Academy of Notre Dame could be centered around global topics and opportunities. Being accepted to the program has been one of my greatest achievements in high school because it has given me so many opportunities to meet new people, learn new cultures, and truly discover what I am passionate about. Throughout the webfolio you will see several projects and experiences which have all shaped the person I am today.
