Describe the world you come from — for example, your family, community or school — and tell us how your world has shaped your dreams and aspirations.

My experiences throughout my life have helped me learn how to pull through any challenge, and continue on to be stronger than I have ever thought. Resilience is the key to success. It is what drove me to thrive and to reach for my goals even with a harsh upbringing.
