Before Moeller I went to All Saints. I had always seen the students from Moeller walking over to All Saints to volunteer and I always knew that is where I wanted to go. I stayed active through athletics and had hobbies such as skiing and reading Harry Potter. I have a sister who also went to All Saints and is now a freshman at Ursuline. I live in sycamore near Hopewell park and I spent a lot of my time riding my bike there. My favorite grade school memory was the family system because it resembled the Moeller House System.

At Moeller I have been a National Honors Society member, a peer tutor starting junior year, and a mentor group captain. I played hockey for 2 years here and this is my 4th year playing lacrosse for Moeller. I attended march for life this past week which was one of my favorite memories so far. I also played golf freshman and sophomore year for Moeller and it taught me many lessons. I am in little buddies and I also was the canned food drive rep for my mentor group sophomore through senior year.

My favorite memory at Moeller so far has been Kairos. I went at the beginning of my senior year and it truly changed my life. Since Kairos I have been more aware about going to mass and also being better at talking and feeling for people. I think my small group connected very well and that made the experience all that better.

After Moeller I am going to John Carroll University in Cleveland and studying economics with a minor in AI. I am also playing lacrosse there. I chose John Carroll for the religious affiliation and the campus. After college I want to move to a big city to work and hopefully pick up golf again.
