About Me

My name is Lauren Brooks. I am a 17 year old girl from New York City, and I am a senior at The Birch Wathen Lenox School. I love all sorts of things in life, but I am most passionate about people. In my free time, I run my school’s debate team, play multiple sports, and love to give back to society whether it be through community service, teaching students debate, or working with the elderly.  I love to help people in any way I can and give back, especially to the elderly in our society. During a summer internship, I wanted to know more about the elderly in all aspects of their lives, and the impact they have on society even if we don’t realize it.
