She has taken on numerous leadership positions, serving as vice president for her graduating class, as well as the Southeastern Massachusetts Association of Student Councils (SEMASC).

In September of 2023, Gabby and her peers took on the endeavor of programming and publishing a mobile game to educate a younger generation on financial proficiency. Since the publication of the game, ""BUDget,"" on the Apple Store, the application has received 300+ downloads and a variety of five star reviews. With the BUDget App, Gabby aspires to challenge traditional learning styles with an innovative twist.
