Hello, I am Dureh Wren. I am a 2021 high school graduate from Chain of Lakes Collegiate High School in Winter Haven, Florida. I am very involved with my local community and help out at my church St. Mark’s Episcopal in Haines City, Florida. I also love archery, calisthenics, and computers. I am attending The University of Central Florida in the fall pursuing a degree in Aerospace Engineering. My goal is to further mankind by reimagining technology and travel whether it is by, land, sea, air, or space!
