FinalistBio
Hi! My name is Natalie. As a current senior in high school, I lead with a heart for service and a mind attuned to design, storytelling, and global perspective. Whether I am leading as part of the Interact club, ushering at church, or capturing moments through photojournalism, I approach every role with precision, purpose, and care.
Rooted in a love for travel, art, and meaningful connections, I believe creativity can drive real change. I’m especially interested in exploring the intersection of culture, communication, and identity–potentially through future studies in marketing, communications, or global studies in college. I am drawn to branding, personal growth, and building spaces where others feel seen and valued.
