Healthy career in business lies ahead

Mallory Rogers Dickey

Dekaney High School junior Mallory Rogers Dickey spends her free time mentoring her peers and learning about business leadership, two helpful skills for a student who wants to not only be in the medical field one day, but also in the business world. She hope to attend Baylor University to fulfill her ambitions, but in the meantime, this Dekaney Diamond dancer fills her head with knowledge from her hands-on high school physics class.
