Please tell us about yourself by providing a biographical sketch. This is your opportunity to allow the selection committee to get to know who you are, your passions, your hopes and dreams, what drives you, or any other personal experiences that have shaped who you are today.

impossible2Possible (i2P) is a non-profit with the goal of breaking the boundaries that bind modern education by merging education, inspiration, and empowerment with mind-blowing adventures and state-of-the-art communication technology. Our adventure based learning expeditions deliver the world to the classroom and the classroom to the world! Describe what this vision means to you, and how you'd represent it.

i2P expeditions create situations that challenge the abilities of individuals and the team with varied levels of intensity.  These expeditions are metaphors for the problems and challenges of daily life. Throughout your journey, Youth Ambassadors will engage in dozens of group activities that foster individual and team skills such as cooperation, problem solving, and communication. Each activity has a "challenge" or performance objective, but the real goal is to complete the challenge using skills and techniques that bring the group together.  Please give an example of one significant experience where you utilized team dynamics in a conflict resolution setting or to obtain a positive outcome.

Without using the impossible2Possible mission statement, describe in your own words the purpose of i2P and what it means to you.  

Impossible2Possible does not require immediate running endurance abilities. We do require an athletic background. The selection committee looks for the capacity to complete the 8-10 week i2P training program. Upon completion of the training program, youth ambassadors will attempt to cover varied distances and terrains while traveling cross country for consecutive days. Please describe your athletic history and current athletic endeavors.
