Welcome to my website. My name is Ben and I enjoy photography, traveling, and playing piano.
I am a high school student with a strong interest in environmental science and conservation. My academic focus includes STEM coursework and independent scientific research, including recognition and awards at the Pennsylvania Junior Academy of Science and NMSEF.
Outside the classroom, I am deeply involved in music composition and performance. I have composed original scores for school productions, combining creative direction with collaborative leadership.
I am passionate about the outdoors, with experience in PICL mountain biking and SOLO Wilderness First Aid certification. I am interested in pursuing environmental science or a related field in college, with a focus on combining research and hands-on fieldwork. To me, gaining knowledge and understanding about our environment is a crucial first step towards conservation.
