Despite only being in second grade, Aby Leila Cameron has a host of accomplishments to her name already. The 7-year-old is an honor's student at Cook-Wissahickon Elementary School, and also excels as a Brownie and in music.

Cameron, who has two older sisters, described her key to success: "I work hard, and I study hard."

It also helps that she maximizes her time: Cameron has earned perfect attendance so far this year. After school, she does some homework at North Light Community Center, but mostly does it at home.

This year in Brownies, in addition to selling Girl Scout cookies, Cameron has gone camping, learned a bunch and gone on field trips. 

Although her mind's not made up, she either wants to be a doctor or teacher when she grows up.
