My passion is economics.
I have been passionate about the science of the economy since I was in kindergarten. The passion for this topic first arose when I witnessed first hand the struggles my parents had to face. They had to struggle to find ways to provide us all with the essentials. I was confused and wondered why money was distributed in the manner that it was. Maybe there was a possibility that I could make a change and better the living conditions for some.
This is the first opportunity given to me that I have followed through and accepted. I want to attend Economics for Leaders to practice my leadership skills and gain knowledge on a subject I am heavily passionate about. After participating, I hope to be equipped with the skills that will allow me to reach communities that resemble mine and make a difference for them.
"Mary has always been a 'beast,' as our math department calls her. She topped the list of students who were chosen to skip Pre-Calculus and going straight to AP Calculus. I know that Mary's love of math will serve her well in her goal of majoring in math or economics in the future.
When she's not in school, Mary helps out at her family business. Her family runs a salon/barbershop, where she takes on many roles. She is very excited to learn more about how to approach problems using economic analysis and creative decision-making skills."
Good luck!
