鈱猈hat is one piece of advice you would give an incoming freshman?
Don鈥檛 do exactly what your friends do. That鈥檚 what I did. I would move away from what everyone did and try my own things. That鈥檚 how I made it to where I am today. It was a very good experience even though I didn鈥檛 do everything everyone else did.
鈱狪f you were a superhero, which one would you be and why?
I鈥檓 not really sure because I don鈥檛 watch a lot of superhero movies. I would like to be a princess from one of the Disney movies because I grew up watching them, and they are very wholesome and nostalgic for me.
鈱猈hat are you most excited about after graduation?
I鈥檓 most excited to learn new things and meet new people. I don鈥檛 know how college is going to be, but I can鈥檛 wait to go on and live my life and get a job and start a family.
鈱猈ho inspires you the most and why?
My aunt. Her name is Mary. She inspires me the most because she was valedictorian at my school 10 years ago. She sought out and became an optometrist and I want to do the same thing because she seems so happy, and she has so much free time to go on vacations and spend time with her family. I want to live like that, too.
鈱猈hat鈥檚 been your favorite high school memory?
At the end of my junior year I was very close to my AP bio class and we all made t-shirts together and we wore them during tests and we took pictures everywhere together. It was a great experience. We shared a Google drive with our teacher, too.
