Hey! I'm Mark, and I am a seventh grader at Santa Barbara Middle School.

Hi I’m mark and I’d like to change the world. I hope to eradicate diseases like AIDS, Guinea Worm, and Elephantiasis by being an educator and infectious disease doctor. I dream of ending the ongoing war in northern Uganda, promoting education in India, and sending a letter to the president to stop buying from China so Tibet can be free.

My attitude towards life is that you can reach any goal if you move forward, and I can make everyone's life better with simple solutions and big ideas. I like rhyming poetry (rap) and talking to people. I hope to discover how I can make a difference with these things and Teen Press is a great place to nurture this. I would like to speak to lots of people and inspire people to change their and other peoples lives. Teen Press is a great place to practice talking to people and motivate people to do great things in the process. In my free time I like to write songs.
