Deasia photoWhy did you join the MYC?

I joined the MYC because I saw the organization as a chance to make a positive change in my community.

What are your passions/hobbies?

Some of my hobbies are writing, reading, creating art, running track, and poetry.

Name one youth you admire and why?

I admire Gavroche Thénardier from the novel Les Misérables by Victor Hugo because even though he was 12 years old he still put as much effort into the French Revolution as the adults.

What is an issue/movement that is important to you?

An issue that is important to me is the school systems, the youth is an important part of our future and if they're not being educated properly that will come back to bite us later on.
