About Kayla Fenwick

I now currently attend Pennsylvania State University, I am going into my senior year, majoring in Business with a concentration in management and marketing. I was inducted to the National Society of Leadership and Success and sit on the e-board for the Black Student Union (BSU) with the title of Co-President. I attended Friendship Technology Preparatory Academy in Washington D.C. in the Academy of Engineering (AOE). I was also enrolled in Dual Enrollment, that allowed me to take college courses for Highschool credit and College credit. I am a member of the National Honors society and take part in the Ward 7 & 8 Program and the DCCAP program. These programs provide scholarship opportunities and grants. In October 2020, I became an apprentice in the CareerWise Accenture Youth Apprenticeship Program in Washington, D.C. This highly selective program has allowed me to gain valuable work experience and college credits, in addition to completing my high school education. As an apprentice, I have continued to refine my professional and on-the-job skills, while also contributing to the Accenture business. While within Apprenticeship thus far I have gained knowledge of my top ten strengths that are, Achiever, Learner, Focus, Developer, Input, Competition, Analytical, Belief, Responsibility, and Deliberative.
