Alumnus of the University Honors Program. This is an interdisciplinary honors program that focuses on undergraduate research. My capstone focuses on the effects of colonialism and imperialism in the Americas. I participated in NCSU's "SAY" program, Students Advocating for Youth. I took mentoring and advocacy courses, as well as mentored one elementary student at a local Raleigh school, where I created and implemented a curriculum to foster good personal and educational habits.
