By virtue of his 4th place finish in Help Desk, Bradford qualifies for the National Leadership Conference in San Antonio, Texas on June 27-July 3. He also will be representing the Southeast Region on the Washington FBLA State Leadership team as their vice president next year.

“This year’s conference was full of surprises for me”, said advisor Scott Reardon. “I had several students who I honestly didn’t expect much from, and they either placed and/or made finals in their events. And they are all underclassmen, so I am excited to see what they can accomplish next year!”
