<p>Volunteering: Founded and organized free cyber security camps for middle school students in my area. We traveled to many middle schools after school and taught students "hacking" and protecting themselves from other hackers to get them interested in pursuing STEM careers. Our middle schools have a dearth of classes and activities involving technology, so I wanted to get them involved in something other than the typing classes they offer.

<p>Also:
I've been painting and drawing almost my entire life. I find studying people and their behaviors fascinating, and I'm exploring the theme of destructive teen behavior in my concentration portfolio. I'm definitely going to submit my art portfolios.</p>
