Isabella Wolfington

Student from Miami, passionate about gaining hands-on experience, working on meaningful projects, and discovering my purpose every day.

About me

I'm a 2026 graduate of Carrollton School of the Sacred Heart in Miami, where I was a bilingual IB Diploma candidate, an AP Scholar, and on the High Honor Roll. I love learning and challenging myself, and I pick things up quickly. I speak English and Spanish natively, French proficiently, and I'm learning Mandarin. When I'm not working, I'm usually reading.
