Bio: I have gone through the Fairfield Public education system in Connecticut where I took a variety of advanced classes but specialized in math classes. Throughout high school, I had many leadership positions as well as a lot of work and life experience. I was treasurer of my BBYO (Jewish youth group) chapter junior year and then treasurer for the Connecticut Valley Region my senior year. I was also in different clubs and committees at my school varying from helping to plan my class dances and other events to fighting for cancer. Senior year I was a member of the National Honor Society. As far as work goes, I was a volunteer my freshman summer helping to tutor students in summer school that didn’t pass 7th and 8th grade. I also babysat, volunteered at a local nursing home, was a lifeguard for four summers, and taught sailing for three summers as a certified US Sailor. Now in college I am in Sigma Kappa Sorority where I am the community service chair, but also serve on the senior prom and standards committee. I hope to be continually active for the next three years and after college graduation. I think a big part of my life has been dedicated toward helping others and I am confident it will be a big asset when entering into the business world.
