This past summer, she earned the opportunity to study at the University College – Dublin in Ireland, one of four students chosen as finalists in an essay contest sponsored by the Irish Consul General and Irish Network New Orleans.

Following that, she interned locally with WGNO as an intern.

In August, she helped Mrs. Perry Rogers set up the DLS Writing Center to provide students with more help with their writing assignments beyond class time.
