Many of Wright&rsquo;s family members have served in the military and been on police forces, which is why he feels so drawn to this type of career.<\/p>\n<p>Once Wright completes his bachelor&rsquo;s degree, he intends to enlist in the Marines. &ldquo;I plan on serving four years on active duty, then go into the police academy to become a police officer.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Wright is making the most of his time at Goodwin as president of the Photography Club and a member of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodwin.edu\/clubs\/outdoors\/\">Outdoors Club<\/a>. &ldquo;I love collaborating with

href=\"https:\/\/www.goodwin.edu\/academic-success-center\/math-lab\">Math lab<\/a> for extra help. &ldquo;I struggled with math, but the tutors really helped me focus.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>His time at
