In my opinion, learning with a purpose is the only way to learn. As a homeschooled High School student, I spent most of my learning experience working independently. I have grown to appreciate the unconventional approach, and I realized that the flexibility of a non-traditional schooling approach was the only way that I could have succeeded to my fullest potential. It gave me the opportunity to learn while accommodating a disability, to pursue high level performance art, to grow my passion for advocacy, and connect with my family. I have been privileged to travel, experiencing my education, while allowing me to connect with the real world and with nature. Now, in my college education, I hope to prioritize diversity in thought, exploration leadership within myself and others, and remaining interdisciplinary in my studies, in and outside of classes.
