What elementary school did you go to?

Baldwin

What other activities are you involved in at CRLS and/or in the community?

I’m an active member of the CRLS Fencing Team, Chess Club, Club 4, and Yearbook Club. I volunteer at the Harvard Square Homeless Shelter regularly, and have been volunteering as a coach during my summers at North Cambridge Soccer Nights for 5 years.

If you could interview anyone, dead of alive, who would it be and WHY?

If I could interview anyone, then I would choose to interview Robert Downey Jr. I’m a huge fan of the Iron Man movies, and he seems like a generally fun person.
