My biggest accomplishment in life so far was going undefeated during track season and later winning the 6A Track Championship at the end of the season. It was my first year running track, so I had no experience at all, but I knew to work on my speed and my hand-offs. I worked hard that Spring and fortunately it paid off with a championship.

My greatest accomplishment in my life thus far is being chosen to be in an Opera Boot Camp in Jackson as a Freshman in college. During my time at the boot camp, I was introduced to a famous conductor, pianist, and music educator, Maestro Donold Lee III. During my time with Maestro Lee, he assisted me in bettering my singing in German and gave me key points in the conducting industry. This opportunity has given me the needed encouragement to continue and pursue my interest in the music industry.

My greatest accomplishment in my life so far has been attending Alcorn State University. I never thought that I would attend a university, especially for free. Alcorn provided me with a plethora of scholarships and opportunities. The University has opened my eyes for my future endeavors and now I have an open mind. I can do anything that I put my mind to.

My greatest accomplishment would have to be being a part of the Dean’s Ambassador Council for the School of Business. This Council has opened many doors for me, and I could not be more grateful. The connections that I’ve had while being on the Council will last me a lifetime. I’ll always have a job somewhere.
