About Me

I’m Zaria, a dedicated and dynamic 17-year-old who excels both academically and athletically. With a strong background in leadership, I have significantly influenced my track team at James Clemens High School, even securing a charter bus for our six-hour trip to the Alabama State track meet in Gulf Shores. As a member of the French Honor Society and an honor roll student since fifth grade, I have taken challenging courses such as AP Physics 1 with Algebra, AP Calculus BC, and AP Psychology, earning a 4 on the AP Calculus BC exam.

In addition to my academic and athletic pursuits, I am deeply committed to my community, frequently volunteering through my role as a James Clemons Student Ambassador. Last summer, I also volunteered at an endoscopy center. With a passion for finance, I see a future where I become a financial advisor or real estate agent, ultimately aspiring to own my own business. Outside of my professional ambitions, I enjoy cooking, filming, and crocheting, and I am excited about the opportunities my experience at CEO will bring.
