Kayla Culmer is 16 years old and is currently as a twelve-grade student enrolled at St. Anne’s High School. Kayla's endeavors in life are many and continuous goals are to make a significant impact on the lives of others; especially those in need. She says, "Focusing on Agriculture and Self Sustainability” the adversities we go through and the things which have been taken from us is a horrible way to experience life. Discovering what we can give to others and that which we have to offer the world is far better." She aspires to become a professional Model and an Interior Designer. Her goal, as well as her future aspirations, is not directly linked to her platform; “Agriculture and Self Sustainability” however, her platform hits close to home as being the granddaughter of grandparents that owns a farm during these unprecedented times such as COVID-19, spreading the awareness regarding Agriculture and self-sustainability which is simply providing for ourselves as a country is vital.
