As a Cub Scout at the age of 7, I learned to appreciate the outdoors through camping and strengthen my character. At the age of 11, I became a Boy Scout. This journey has taught me many life lessons pertaining to leadership, friendship, trust, responsibility, survival skills, and moral decision-making. At 17, I achieved the Eagle rank, the highest rank in Scouting.
