How will your high school experiences help you in the coming years? It will provide me with much experience with leadership roles and working within a team.

Fondest memory of high school? Playing football, basketball and running track, all at the state level.

Which teachers have had the biggest impact on you and why? Mrs. Jaundrey, because she had asked me to come and help work with her first grade students the past two years, and it has helped show me how valuable teachers are to youth and also helped show me how much the elementary kids look up to older kids.

Who is your role model and how did they influence you? I would say both of my parents just because how much they both have done for me and my sister. How they raised me and my sister and all the things they would do for us is the same way I want to raise my children.

What is special about your high school? That my high school is a K-12 school, so we get to interact with elementary and get to be their role models.

If you could go back to when you were a freshman, what advice would you give yourself? That all the hard work will pay off, but also remember to soak up high school because it goes by fast.
