I’m an upcoming senior at Delcastle Technical High School and thrilled to represent Delaware SkillsUSA as a 2026-2027 State Officer. During my service, I seek to encourage more members to get involved in SkillsUSA. My experiences in SkillsUSA have helped me understand how strong leadership can positively influence a team and create opportunities for others to succeed. It is my intention to lead by example, for I believe actions are stronger than words.

I’m going into my junior year at Delcastle Tech. High School, and I’m proud to represent Delaware SkillsUSA as a state officer. I’m happy to serve with my peers, and I hope to expand my knowledge and leave a positive impact on the team. With the skills and experience I gain, I have a goal to run for national office next year. I’m eager to face challenges and create meaningful connections throughout the year. For the 2026-2027 year, I hope to expand understanding of the framework for students involved with SkillsUSA, as the skills in the framework set students up for lifelong-careers.

Polytech Highschool

I am currently a rising senior attending POLYTECH Highschool and it is my first year proudly serving as a Delaware State Officer for SkillsUSA. With this title comes great responsibility, so I will exhaust every effort to make sure I represent and advocate for every career and technical education student in my state. My main goal for the 2026-2027 season is to get more people involved in SkillsUSA. The more students and my chapter can get informed about the goals of our organization, the more people we can help become career-ready individuals in the workforce. I believe some of my most valuable contributions to my team are my problem solving skills and my ability to connect with others and make connections. This responsibility is something that I am very grateful for and will use my passion for SkillsUSA as a foundation of my service.
