What’s your favorite school memory or what will you remember the most? My favorite school memory was me and my friends’ gossip time with Mr. Mohs class during my junior year.

If you could go back and change one thing, what would it be? I would go back and change the way I never would go out with friends until my junior year. I wish I would’ve gone and hung out with them and made more memories sooner in life.

Finish this sentence: “I could not live without…” My friends and family, they have been my biggest supporters through everything.

What’s the best and/or worst thing about being a senior? The best thing about being a senior is being able to set examples and be a role model for younger kids to look up to. The worst thing about being a senior is probably all the work you have to make sure is finished and completed to graduate.

Which teacher or staff member has had the biggest impact on you and why? The teacher that has had the biggest impact on me is Mr. Mohs, he taught me a lot about maturing and growing up and learning about respect. Even though I was probably the most annoying kid his first year he by far, he’s taught me the most my whole school career.

What’s your advice to incoming high school freshmen? Make yourself your biggest priority and be involved in whatever you can get hands on even if it makes you uncomfortable.

What are your plans after graduation? I plan on attending Kirkwood Community College in Cedar Rapids to major in ag business.

What is one outrageous thing you want to try in your lifetime? One outrageous thing I want to try in my lifetime would be going on hunting trips all around the world.

If you could move anywhere in the world, where would you go and why? If I could move anywhere in the world, it would be Texas. It has all the perks - it’s warm, it’s got plenty of land for having a farm, and I could have more hunting opportunities.

Who has been your biggest influence in your life and why? My dad, he’s taught me how to be independent and be able to do things most women rarely know how to do.
