Genius

A genius, on the other hand, is someone who stands out in a certain area. It’s a person who performs a “work of genius” – an important and significant work for society. In other words, they’re people with special talents. They’re creative, groundbreaking, and innovative.

Ashley Anthony

Sean Green

Jamyson Haug

Giovanna Scalzone
