Blake Grinstead

Blake Grinstead’s three words to describe himself are “Caring, Loving, and Funny.” Blake is the son of Megan Robertson, and the brother of Brook Robertson, Chloe Grinstead, and Brody Grinstead.

While at Pekin, Blake has participated in football and basketball. His favorite school memory is his junior year prom. His advice to underclassmen is to not procrastinate.

His future plans are to initially enter the workforce and then attend college in the future. As for his biggest influence, he said “My mom because she taught me everything I know, and gives great advice.” Blake’s favorite quote is “ It’s about drive, it’s about power” from Dwayne Johnson.

Blake’s dream place to travel is Japan because he would like to experience the cherry blossom trees. When asked about who in the world past or present he would like to meet, he answered “LeBron James because he is the greatest of all time.”

With his senior year coming to a close, Blake is ready for whatever is up next for him in his journey.
