About Me

Malak Amer is a senior at Edwardsville High School. She enjoys participating in many extracurriculars and clubs including National Honor Society, Thespian Society, Drama Club, Ethics Bowl (philosophical discussion), The Superintendent’s Student Advisory Board,  Chess Club, and Peer to Peer Tutoring. She also co-founded the Muslim Student Association (MSA) and is the co-president of Unity Club and vice president of the Science National Honor Society. Malak is very honored to be part of the Edwardsville CEO Program and is excited to meet many new people and have new experiences as well as form her own business. While Malak enjoys and values academics, she also sees the importance of going into the “real world”, meeting people, and forming valuable connections. During her free time, Malak enjoys a good game of chess followed by a peaceful reading session with rain sounds in the background. Malak speaks Arabic fluently and can communicate in Spanish. She has traveled to 5 countries and has had the privilege to ride over 30 planes. Malak plans to pursue a degree in engineering (most likely in the mechanical field) and then hopes to one day become a businesswoman and have the power to help people.
