Welcome to the Elevate edition!
Explore how our others have tapped into their senses, abilities, and passions to lift themselves and those around them to new heights. We explore how this awareness impacts social consciousness (p. 5, 14), cross-cultural connections (p. 6), athletic performance (p. 16), academic achievement (p. 20, 22, 26), and career aspiration (p. 27).
Dartmouth junior Juan Quinonez Zepeda (pp. 14-15) shares his path to the Ivy League and draws attention to the intellectual contributions of immigrants. Holy Family University sophomore Lizmary Ortiz (pp. 20-21) shares strategies to maximize the virtual learning experience, while Karyme Font, a junior at The Arts Academy at Benjamin Rush (pp. 27-29), shares Cindy Sipala’s path from intern to executive editor, and how passion and persistence led to her dream job.
I hope that as you reflect on the stories shared here, you’ll gain insights to elevate your own ideas of what is possible in life!
Con cariño,
Jenée Chizick Aguero, founder
