Cecelia “Cece” is a down-to-earth, give-more-than-she-takes, compassionate human being. She is a senior in high school but is already a sophomore in college, having been accepted to a four-year college during her junior year and started taking classes online at SCADnow toward her bachelor’s degree in Architecture in 2025. She is holding a job, plays soccer, throws shot put, discus, and javelin for her high school, mentors and coaches youth goalkeepers in her area, is a mental health advocate, and volunteers in the community. She does it all but never boasts or brags about herself. If you know her, you are so lucky—if you don’t, it’s a shame!
