On Leadership...
A leader is someone who works hard to ensure that the needs of his/her people are either met or possible solutions are in place.  A leader is a servant to the people and put them before his/her self. A leader also helps groom future leaders because he/she understands that there will be a time for others to lead.


Influences/Inspiration...
I honestly draw my inspiration from people. I’m also worried about how I can address an issue that someone else may face to make their lives easier. In school I not only worry about my education, but how I can better my peer's education to ensure that we are all successful.  Nothing in particular inspired me to be a leader. I just truly care about others and am willing and ready to ensure that the needs of others are met or that there are at least  several different solutions to address the needs of the people.

Tools/ Skills needed...
The most important tool for a leader is his/her ears. In order to lead you must first become a great listener. Without great listening skills you wouldn’t be able to help others because you would be unaware of their views and concerns.


Advice to inspiring leaders...
The most important advice that I have for someone who wants to be a student leader is that you have the ability to be that leader. In fact if you just took your first step in becoming a leader just by your curiosity on how you could become one.   Congrats! Now keep pushing!

Interesting fact about you...
An interesting fact about me is that I am a candidate for The Student Member of The Board of Prince George’s County Public School’s.
