A social chameleon.
I'm a very unique person... I don't even know where to begin describing myself. I'm an individual. I am always thinking, even when I don't want to, about everything and anything. I enjoy philosophical conversations, and I try to be open-minded in all aspects. I believe in possibility and truth. I look forward to the next few years and going to college full time. I'll do anything at least once, and I have too many interests to count. I can like just about anything and anyone. Except standardized tests. Not only inadequate, they are almost total misrepresentations of the student's abilities.

Extracurricular
- Air Band Club
- A good friend of mine formed this club my sophomore year. It turned out to be a lot of fun, even though it was just a dedicated few that showed up every week.
- Quiz Bowl
- Something I missed out on my freshman year, this really gets your brain working. I did this kind of thing in junior high, and it was great to get back to it. I look forward to continuing this. This last year, our Varsity team won the National Championship
- Bowling Club
- Another extracurricular I should've done freshman year, I've always loved bowling.
- Freshman Soccer
- The "C" team at our school, typically for freshman. I've played soccer all my life, so I had to give it a try.
- Junior Varsity Tennis
- Another sport I've always loved. I typically played 1 or 2 JV Singles.
- DDR Club
- A great club that started my freshman year... A large group of us loved DDR, but it was a hassle to go the the Purdue Student Union whenever we wanted to play.
- Japanese Club
- Anyone who's in Japanese class is a member. We watch movies occasionally or take trips to a Japanese restaurant.
- Purdue Kendo Club
- Club at Purdue where we learned the martial art of kendo.
- Purdue Anime Club
- A club where a large group of people come together to watch and enjoy anime.
- IMAGINE
- Informing Minds About Global Information, News & Events -- It's a group where we discuss what's going on in the world, and share opinions/possible solutions.
- Letterman's Club
- Club that volunteers to help with athletic events, and gives scholarship money to seniors.
- Math Club
- Club that takes math tests on an extracurricular level and competes with other schools.
- Purdue Ballroom Dance
- Social Club - 2 times a week, laid back, learn & have fun Team - 2-3 times a week, faster paced and geared towards the competetive side of things
- Harrison Ballroom Dance Club
- Recently a group of us started a ballroom dance club at my school. I am (one of the) vice president(s), since I'm the only male with previous experience. I mostly teach the guys' parts, and just help things run smoothly in general.
- Break Dance Club
- Very fun club while it lasted. Made by a few seniors when i was a frosh, it was actually a great learning experience as well as fun exercise. Sadly it was discontinued after they left, since there wasn't enough interest.
- Purdue Entrepreneurship Academy
- Week-long event for selected high school students interested in a high tech entrepreneurial field as a future career.
- Air Band Club
- Went to meetings and voted on necessary topics.
- Break Dance Club
- Got together with the rest of the officers/leaders to discuss the future of the club etc.
- Harrison Ballroom Dance Club
- As stated in the other category, I help teach the male dance steps and help with other problems in general. Also, I meet with other officers to determine the next step for the club.
