Noel explores the relationship between the dead and the living. She seeks to discover why some people leave such lasting effects on us even after they die.

Noёl Clark is a senior at Cardinal Newman High School. She has a great love for the outdoors and plans to study marine biology in college next year. For her CBSL project she is helping at-risk youth get outside through beach clean-ups and rock climbing camps. When she is not in school or at lacrosse and cross country practice, Noёl spends her free time outdoors running, mountain-biking, hiking, and rock climbing. Later in life she hopes to work for the National Geographic Society as a researcher and photojournalist in order to promote conservation and protection of our natural world.
