In high school, I was a member of the STEM (Science Technology Engineering and Math) magnet program.

As a student at Mountain Heritage High School, I started taking classes as a freshman to learn about architecture, interior designing, and landscape architecture.

At this time in our very lives we are planning for the future and making a ladder for ourselves of goals to reach.
