What does being an Eagle Scout mean to you? Being an Eagle Scout is an achievement earned by building relationships, and working with your troops, adults and youth as a team.
If you had to describe your entire Scouting experience with just one word, what word would you choose? Why? Enjoyable. The relationships made with fellow Scouts and the adults in Troop 91 are relationships I will never forget, along with the opportunities I got because of them.
How did earning the rank prepare you for the future? The whole Scouting experience prepared me for the future, but specifically the Eagle Scout project instilled in me the importance of helping others but also doing “real work” to accomplish a goal.
By doing your Eagle Service Project, what did you learn about managing or leading people? I learned that to me what’s most important when trying to lead people…is connecting with them first, building relationships.
What advice would you give to younger Scouts who aspire to become Eagle Scouts? My advice is to do the work, and hit the ground running with merit badges.
Please share a favorite Scouting memory. My favorite memory is my whole trek at Philmont in 2019.
