(Please limit your response to 500 words or less.) Engaging with my community has always been an interest of mine. I like to help whoever I can, support people in many ways, and give out resources to those in need. With that being said, I've always wanted to put others first, and studying criminal justice has taught me how to help people in more ways than I knew of. Becoming a police officer has always been a dream of mine, ever since I was little. I want to show people that I can protect them and care for them no matter the current situation. I am an 11th -grade junior that goes to Foster High School. I want to study more in criminal justice when I get to college. I believe the Community Oriented Policing Citizen Advisory Board would be a perfect opportunity for me to engage not only with my community but the police chief. I want to learn more about public safety and how I could help with that in my community, while also enhancing my knowledge of police work. With in-depth knowledge of law enforcement, along with the police work process, I have a proven ability in researching and knowing how to help my community with important necessities. I have studied in a criminal justice program at PSSC, in which we learned about ways of police work and the understanding of investigations. I am a hard-working, self -motivated, professional, and committed student who feels comfortable in this line of work. I have helped grow and sell fresh fruits and vegetables for my community and try to help homeless individuals as much as I can. Strongly that I have the necessary skills, qualities, and attributes to carry out the duties of this position, but also help myself move forward positively and innovatively through challenging work and dedication/determination. I am hoping to get to discuss with everyone on this board and continually look to improve and develop my skills in this role as student representative.

Boards & Commissions Application Page 3 Professional/Community Activities (organizations, clubs, service groups, etc.): I believe strongly in helping my community. As previously stated in my first paragraph, I worked with this group called Youth Roots. I believe this was an organization that I worked with over the summer of 2021. We met four days out of the week to talk about our community or the plants and vegetables that are grown in our community garden. It was a small internship with a limited number of people to help build a stronger group. We had a small garden where we would meet to plant fresh vegetables or fruits, even some flowers to be sold at a local farmers market. While working at the farmer's market, I learned about a bunch of different vegetables that I didn't even know existed and conducted surveys about how we could make this small local market a better place for everyone. I asked a lot of questions from different people about what they wanted to see and what they wanted to have at this market. I enjoy pushing my limits to see how I can involve everyone's input. Hobbies/Interests: I have always liked to be moving on my feet. Hiking, sports, and dance have always been a hobby and interests of mine ever since I was little. Staying active whenever I can has always been something that helps my mental health. It is something that takes my mind off the world and whatever I am going through at the moment. Taking that nice big fresh breath of air whenever you step outside is like a reliever for your mind. With that being said, I've always been told that police work was something that relates to me a lot. Not only do you get to help your community, but you also get to help it in many ways, and with that including your own interests. As an active social individual, I enjoy meeting new people and engaging with them in many different ways. It not only makes me happy, but it makes others around me feel happy when someone talks to them in a genuinely nice and approachable way. It is always good to be open and take part in a community different from yours.
