Charlie has served on the Indiana High School Athletic Association (IHSAA) Student Advisory Committee and was nominated for this position on the NFHS by the IHSAA. He was selected as one of two representatives of Section 4 of the US, which includes Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Michigan, and Wisconsin.

The 16-member National Student Advisory Council will begin in January 2024 and will provide the
NFHS leadership with student perspectives on the high school experience regarding co-curricular participation across the United States. The council will also identify, develop, and facilitate leadership exercises and activities to engage peers at all levels in their growth as leaders and to provide direct insight to council membership for discussion, consideration, and communication to NFHS leadership.

Charlie has also participated in the 2023 IHSAA Student Leadership Conference and assisted at this past fall’s IHSAA Volleyball and Football State Finals.
