FinalistBio
Hi! My name is Chloe, and I’m a high school senior planning to study neuroscience in college, driven by a strong commitment to medicine, equity, and community advocacy. I spend much of my time volunteering in hospitals, food pantries, hospice, and assisted living spaces. I also founded Next Step Scholars, a K–12 tutoring and mentoring program, and love using education as a tool to build confidence, access, and opportunity in the Cleveland area. Outside of service, you’ll find me seeking philosophical inspiration from Nathaniel Hawthorne’s works, mastering creative writing, crocheting for community donation projects, exploring Spanish language and culture, or unwinding at the gym.
