"I graduated from SAIL High School in 2004. SAIL had prepared me for the rigors of higher education by building both my personal confidence and intellectual goals. I am currently a Junior attending Sweet Briar College (www.sbc.edu) in Lynchburg, VA, where I am pursuing two degrees in English and Studio Art. I am also a straight-A student and have consistently maintained a GPA above 3.9. I also study realist art at the atelier Studio Incamminati (studioincamminati.org) situated in Philadelphia, PA, alongside the artist Nelson Shanks. I plan to attend graduate school after I have obtained my first two degrees."
