Val Burda '21 Recruiting Profile

Being a passionate leader I have experienced many aspects of the true team definition. In collage I would love to study education due to my love of helping others.  As a current lifeguard/ swim lesson instructor I instruct young, old, and special needs children and absolutely love being able to get them comfortable with the water and eventually love the water as much as I do! Another passion of mine is cooking and baking, on the weekends when I don't have competitions I'm always searching for new recipes to try and would most definitely want to experience culinary in an advanced level.  By the end of high school, I will be fluent in 5 languages and hope to eventually travel to the countries where my knowledge of a foreign language will be necessary and be able to get to experience their culture, education,  and traditions.+
