Greetings Everyone,
I am Nathaniel “Nate” Davis graduating on June 2nd, 2024, from Cornerstone Christian College Prep School. I will be
attending Manchester University in the Fall, majoring in Pre-Law, and minoring in Philosophy and History.
How would I define success? I define success as an act of accomplishing and/or achieving a desired goal. People like to
measure success as how much money they have or how many material things they possess. But success is simply measured
by how much you have impacted, influenced, and motivated someone to be better than their current state.
Where do I see myself in 10 years? I see myself continuing to stay on the path that God is leading me on, whether it is me
being a lawyer or not. I will be in college attaining more degrees in various areas of study, while also owning a few
businesses.
How would I describe myself if you did not know me? I would describe myself as an outgoing person, eagerly wanting to
learn as a lack of knowledge is what causes people to destroy themselves. I am a very understanding person. I view problems
in different ways and solve them differently as well. I am God fearing and always open-minded.
