Leo is an 8th grader at Gene Pike Middle School in Justin, TX. He is a student with an exceptional story that he has yet to uncover. For now he has his eyes set on what the future holds in high school.
Leo mentioned that he was applying for the Academy of Media Arts and Technology program at Northwest High School and needed help with his essay. He worked diligently in my office through his writing struggles for five weeks. He set deadlines each week and met each one.
My proudest observation of working with Leo is that through this process, he became open to criticism and was never deflated or discouraged. Every meeting he was more willing to dig deeper until he finished his essay. I was honored to work alongside Leo and wish him the best of luck in his high school career.
