Hello!

High School Experiences

I graduated from Cambridge High School in Milton, GA in May 2022, and spent much of my time in my last two years in the performing arts and Career Tech programs. While I was a student, I was part of the Audio/Video Technology and Film (AVTF) program, a GDOT-certified Career Tech & Agricultural Education (CTAE) pathway made to prepare Georgia students for the film & television industry. The program also partners with SkillsUSA & guarantees a certification with the state upon completion, which is displayed on the participant’s high school diploma. As a high school senior, I was a regular contributor to our main production, The Bridge, most often making commercials and participating in the Newswire segment, in addition to assisting other segments, and participated in each of our 22 episodes for the 2021-2022 season. This production was widely by the student body, and often beyond as well; parents viewed the program just as much as the students. Additionally, by the end of my senior year, I had achieved both the pathway completion and workplace readiness seal in the program, which are displayed on my high school diploma.

My experience in the AVTF program was an essential part of my contributions to the performing arts programs in high school. In my senior year, I was responsible for much of the concert and performance recordings for the orchestra and theatre programs, and I learned a number of copy editor skills as part of my regular volunteer work with the orchestra program. I was also able to apply my proficiencies in music and technology to create my project for a Fine Arts Diploma Seal. The project consisted of a medley of pieces that had never been adapted for string orchestra, and I spent many hours in music production software working on the final arrangement. This earned me the Fine Arts seal, which is displayed on my diploma alongside my CTAE seals.
