About Me

Hello! Welcome to my page. I am currently a senior a Bonita High School, and it's been a very interesting 4 years here. I've been in the marching band since my freshmen year, and I have been playing with them ever since. I also play many other instruments as well, such as the guitar, trumpet, baritone, and of course the tuba which I currently play with the marching band. I'm also a big brother to my younger sister, Samantha. In my English class I have many long time friends from elementary school such as Katie Mitchell, [[1]] and Anthony Silva [[2]].The overall experience so far in digital English this year has been great, and I hope that this class continues for years to come.

My PACE

For my senior PACE project I decided that I wanted to do something business related, since that's what my planned major is for college. I decided to write about the differences and similarities between non-profit and for profit business. I also decided that I wanted to work for either type of business to see what make's a given one so special. I was able to get into contact with my churches book keeper, and I worked as my youth groups bookkeeper. This involved keeping track of all of our expenses, and laying out a chart that specifies what we are spending our money on, and when, and how we can cut back to have more money for other activities.


Project

My project hours specifically involved keeping track of all of our finances of my youth group, and this involved making a log of progress for everything, and making sure all of the money was accounted for and being used for the correct purposes. When I started working with my bookkeeper, I had to catch up on everything from the current year, and this meant having to back to April and starting adding accounts and sorting through everything. This was an incredibly meticulous process. I am still currently working with our church bookkeeper, and I plan on having everything on a spreadsheet that describes what we have been spending our money on, and how we can cut back and have more money for certain activities as well.

Paper

My Senior Research Paper is about comparing the similarities and differences between non-profit and for profit organizations. There are many similarities surprisingly between the two, and there are of course many differences as well. My paper can be found on the websites we made for Digital English at, [[3]]. My paper goes into specific details about the specific goals of each type of business, and well has how the both acquire money for their purposes, and how they spend it many different aspects as well. This includes general expenses, employees, taxes and many other things as well.
