More from Sofia: My name is Sofia Martinez and I'm from Las Vegas, Nevada. I started Girl Scouts in the second grade going in as a Brownie and ended as an Ambassador after I graduated and have moved on to being a lifetime member. Since then, I've gone on to receive my Bronze, Silver, and Gold Award and become involved in many other Girl Scout related activities such as Being selected as a Delegate for the National Girl Scout Convention, Dessert before Dinner, and more. Aside from Girl Scouts, I've played soccer my whole life and am an avid reader. Throughout high school, I was involved in many clubs such as Medical Society, NHS, and Key Club. Currently, I'm a freshman at the University of Alabama majoring in Nursing with plans to pursue a Master's degree and become a Nurse Practitioner. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1MIJu-7QXu0 Share this show with your friends on Twitter.
