How would you describe yourself? 

I love to learn about new things and take every opportunity that comes my way. This helps me to grow as a person and also make wonderful memories with others.

Which Greek deity to you most identify with and why?

I’d say that I relate most to Hephaestus because I create a vision of something in my mind and then work hard to bring that into reality.

What do you most look forward to during the Greece program?

I look forward to seeing the Greek culture up close and being able to share that with my classmates. I already know that it’s going to be beautiful and memorable, but I want to learn something meaningful while I’m there as well. 

What has been the most meaningful idea/fact you have learned in this program so far?

The most meaningful idea has been about how ancient philosophers didn’t care if they were right or not. They just hypothesized and were brave enough to publish their thoughts to the world. This has been a valuable lesson for me. 

At this point in your life, what is important/meaningful to you?

Creating value and working hard are the two things I care about most.
