Favorite Quote: "The greatness comes not when things go
always good for you. But the greatness comes when you're really
tested, when you take some knocks, some disappointments, when
sadness comes. Because only if you've been in the deepest valley can
you ever know how magnificent it is to be on the highest mountain."
-Richard Milhouse Nixon
Why I joined AGS: Put very simply I love being involved with
student activities and coordinating with other students to create
amazing experiences for everyone. Being cumulatively part of
something that must be worked on thoroughly day in and day out makes
the end result all the worthwhile. My passion for helping people
reaches from being active in community service all the way to
lending a hand to a new student I've never met before trying to find
a class or make a new friend. I'm very excited to be President this
year and further the reputation we already have in AGS. |
