Chore Star
Chore Star is the name for the Alexa Skill my teammate, Katy, and I programmed for Technovation[MN]. Chore Star is used to create chore lists which are assigned to a certain user and it attaches points (also known as Stars) as a reward system in which the parent or guardian can decide what they are used for.

CO2 Mark
CO2 Mark helps people track and lower their carbon emissions. Using switches people can track what they have done to help. People also earn points by doing these activities. The more carbon saved the more points you get. Again, like the Alexa Skill, Katy and I programmed it for Technovation[MN] but it went through 2 seasons so it was first made on Thunkable and then upgraded to being made through C++.

Pegboard
My teammate, Sophie, and I made Pegboard to help reunite lost items with their appropriate owner and connect people with each other as well. When you go into the app you sign up then you can upload an image with a description of it and the last seen place. Then when uploaded you can scroll through other lost items and when either you or someone else finds an item you can start a conversation to get the item back to its appropriate owner. The app was programmed also with Thunkable again for Technovation[MN].

Upset Birds
Upset Birds was made by myself along with 3 others, our team name being BEEP. Using the help of App Camp for Girls we used C+ to program our app. It was a game where you have to find and click on the right bird otherwise you lose points and make the bird upset.

Innovative Architecture
A little back story; I was involved with FLL (First Lego League) as a participant since 5th grade but the age limit ends at 8th grade. So to stay involved with FLL I decided to mentor a first year team at my middle school! This was my first mentorship ever and to me it was a success! Even though we didn't move on we still were awarded the Innovative Architecture Award for our robot which was amazing considering we were a first year team! My team and I are all looking forward to next season!

Student of The Year
I was awarded Student of The Year at my local dance studio, Nancy Raddatz Dance Studio! It was awarded because I performed with outstanding dedication, commitment, talent, and cooperation as a student and role model. I know this isn't academic related but this award means a lot to me. The studio is my second home and I consider it my therapy. Going to dance has allowed me to stay focused and accomplish a lot more than flexibility.
