Public Speaking Award (2nd Place)

I got this 2nd place Public Speaking Award for a speech I did in Elementary School on the Grand Canyon, a place I was particularly fascinated with at the time. To my young mind, something about a huge crevice etched out by a tiny river's erosion over eons of time was mind-bending. It was very beautiful to look at, too!

"This kid can sell anything!" - An engaged audience member, reflecting on my passion as I explained the kinds of tours you can take of the Grand Canyon.
