I am currently a Junior, attending high school in Portland, Oregon. I am very passionate about travel and education. I think the best way to learn is to immerse yourself in different cultures and learn from communities and people, globally. I want to travel to Europe to broaden my perspective on the world. My parents can't afford for me to travel out of the country, that is why I decided to ask for help in order to obtain this goal. I chose Europe because I am fascinated by the architectural and religious history of these ancients cities. History and art are embedded in countless cities in Europe, which has ultimately drawn me to this endless continent. I am interested in writing and film- making, and I find that it's important to have a global scope and broadened international knowledge when taking on creative occupations. It's important to me to see outside the U.S before I leave for college. I want to find my passion and discover a new world beyond my home, in order to shape my cultural knowledge as well as become a more open-minded and globally aware person.

Here's the film I made- that is based on French New Wave Cinema-  https://youtu.be/vWCTSiTu9tM
