As one of the Founders of the Maryland branch, I worked closely with the popular Instagram page �MoCoForGunControl� to help liberate and root my peers in the �March For Your Lives� movement.

Luckily, I was able to represent these through local News interviews for the News Station WTOP. After starting this campaign and bringing up concerns of safety with my school, the principal and I were able to create safety regulations and ideas for the future generations, including adding bolted doors in our once open and vulnerable hallways.
