I have lived in the beautiful community of Valley Center my entire life and have attended the VCPUSD since kindergarten. I am an active participant in extracurricular activities. I have been a part of Valley Center 4-H since 2011, raising pigs and turkeys and bringing them to the Del Mar Fair for show and competition. I’ve been told my whole life, “Why do you even try, nobody cares.” Well, I care, and I am completely humbled by the life I have. I only ask for the opportunity to continue my life journey with your support. I am currently enrolled in Smith Chason San Marcos, California. I am working on getting my associate degree in Magnetic Resonance Imaging at this school.
