Westfield High School: Akshay Akula's High School
Akshay went to Westfield High School, home of the Bulldogs. Inside the school in the portfolio you'll find a display for each activity.
- Model UN: a delegate debating world issues (the gavel and podium).
- Robotics: on the robotics team, building FRC-style competition robots.
- Track and field: ran track for the Bulldogs.
- Crew: rowed for Westfield, with early mornings on the water.
- Youth Conservation Corps of Virginia: spent a summer volunteering on trail work and conservation in Virginia's state parks.
Three displays are playable mini games: race the 110m hurdles at the track display, row the Westfield eight in a 500m sprint at the crew display, or take the Model UN gavel and bring the council to order.
