Here’s a revised version that centers more on the school shooting and your motivation, while still keeping it appropriate for a resume summary:

Motivated and community-driven student with a strong interest in public health, communication, and justice reform, shaped by personal experience with community violence. Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, I have a direct connection to the district impacted by the Covenant School shooting, where I personally knew two of the victims—one a neighbor and another a respected academic leader. This experience has had a lasting impact on my perspective, strengthening my commitment to advocacy, community safety, and responsible leadership.

Driven to be involved in initiatives and campaigns that prioritize accountability, ethical decision-making, and the well-being of communities, particularly in areas affected by violence. Brings strong communication, research, and interpersonal skills, along with experience engaging with community members on sensitive and impactful issues.
