Bio

I have many goals in life. I would love to change the world and leave my mark. Since that may be a little too ambitious I have opted to changing everything I have the opportunity to for the better. My ultimate goal in life is to open up my own bakery. Opening up a bakery may seem like simply opening up a bakery, but it is much more than that. Opening up a bakery is opening a world to happy customers, that leave my bakery wanting to do something good. I am most passionate about spreading awareness and simply informing others about certain subjects such as climate change. I am a great candidate because I want to do good. Everyone may say this, but I have already started: I have created a club that has donated thousands of dollars to Environmental and Humanitarian charities, along with hosting hundreds of volunteer hours. With these scholarships, I will be able to continue to do good, and hopefully, one day, I will be able to change the world.
