I am looking to gain exposure to as many fields as possible in order to become well rounded. This desire can be seen in the variety of my extracurriculars and activities. In terms of career, however, I would like to go into a legal or finance career. I plan to zone in on activities within these fields. I am hoping that my time at Phillips Exeter Academy will help me reach this goal.
