I am a high school student with a deep interest in classics and languages, notably Spanish and Latin. I LOVE exploring the overlap of my subjects and aim to connect others to these fields. With a heart set on Linguistics, I am keen to merge my linguistic love with research and Science. Always up for new challenges, I am the founder of my school's World Culture Club!
