Goals & Aspirations: “My goal is to graduate as a valedictorian, attend Brigham Young University, serve an honorable mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and go to medical school. I hope to help people as a doctor, especially those with low incomes and no health insurance.”
Accomplishments Most Proud Of: “I am most proud of my participation in the Smiles for El Salvador Humanitarian Mission. The experience of performing dental and medical work for over 500 El Salvadorian teenagers was life-changing, instilling in me a desire to serve my fellow man.”
Logan is Successful Because: “I am successful because of the goals I set for myself. There are times when I fail or when I feel like I can’t do it, but I just look to the help of God and my family, and I get up and keep trying. In the end whatever happens, I know that’s what God had in mind for me.”
Part of the Solution: “Texting and Facebook is depersonalizing our world. Young adults no longer have the guts to ask someone on a date in person, or to communicate in general. I think communication is the key to an ideal society. Young adults need to learn how to step outside their virtual world and join the real world of face-to-face interaction.”
