I am Helena Zhang, a grade 11 student at Centennial C.V.I. I was born in Mainland China and immigrated to Canada when I was seven years old. I am adamantly ardent about the economic sustainability of developing countries and am especially zealous about international business. I am not afraid to be an audacious dreamer. I firmly believe in the power of a team and that it doesn’t take a myriad of people to change the world for the better. Furthermore, I feel that emphasizing the focus of social responsibility among youths is exceptionably important. I am an enthusiast of visual art, music, stamp collecting, and Golden Retrievers! Additionally, I love the company of my family and friends, curling, shortbread cookies, and Skittles!

Why would anyone in the right mind jump from a log 4 or 5 meter above the ground? Neither is climbing up to a tree top and walking across a thin steel wire only to be hung by a thin rope attached to a harness my idea of spending a Saturday.
