Additional Information

I have successfully operated an at home based business retro cupcakes from June 2020 until October 2023. I decided to step back from my home business as I achieved my financial goals. As well was entering high school and looking to achieving principles Honour roll. I'm passionate about science. I have excellent math skill. It was important to me to adjust to high school as I came from a small but strong learning environment at Assumption. I also didn't have the same free time. Now that I'm well-adjusted into high school. I'm ready to take on a summer job.
