  Northwood University

  Oct 2011 - May 2015

  I was a competitor on the Northwood University's Competitive Speech Team for three years. At our 2013 national tournament, I won two awards for my team out of my three speeches that I brought to the table. Our team works individually, as well as a cohesive unit, to place at tournaments. In my fourth and final year on the team, I have been asked to be an assistant coach, as I was not planning on competing due to an increase in obligations. I gladly accepted the position and am now a mentor for incoming competitors. Show less
