My name is Dolce Whitwell and I am a rising senior at Garnet Valley High School. I am a competitive volleyball player who also loves to sing and volunteer. I absolutely love being around people and I am 100% a family oriented girl; I would do anything for those I care about. I have one younger sister and a dog named Marigold. My favorite subjects in school are math and french, and I enjoy learning. I believe myself to be an ambitious, hardworking teen who is determined to leave her mark on the world. In my free time I enjoy reading, spending time with my friends, and exercising at the gym. I love to be outdoors and I enjoy traveling as well. One of my favorite things to do is make other people smile and laugh. I believe that you are not truly happy until you can laugh at yourself. My friends describe me as kind and caring. I never like to see people upset and I am always willing to be a shoulder to cry on. In an argument I am the mediator and I just want people to be at peace. My goal is to set myself up for success and I love to try new things. I want college to be about getting a degree that will allow me to do whatever I want with my future, but I am currently considering majoring in engineering. I realize that I do not know what the future will hold, but I want to be as prepared as possible. I understand that there needs to be a balance between work and fun, but that you need to live your life to the fullest.
