About Gus

Senegal - 2011

Through his participation with Seeds of Peace, an organization dedicated to giving youth the tools to resolve conflict around the world, Gus formed relationships with people on all sides of the Israeli - Palestinian conflict and as a result developed a passion for conflict resolution and international relations. Gus’ love of theater and music led him to write a rock opera over the course of his senior year. Writing both the book and the score, Gus eventually produced Madhouse, with his fellow students serving as the crew, cast, and band.
