was recently selected as a White

As an ambassador of the pro­

social media and community-based
relationships to promote the value

Carter gives all thanks to God for
the opportunities that have come her

foundation they built for her. She
also is grateful for her older siblings
who have served as role models.
Her advice for other students
would be “to keep God first, stay
focused on your studies and keep
your dreams alive. All things are pos­
sible and your dreams are only as big
as you allow them to be!” she says.
