How would other people describe you as a person?
I think other people would describe me as smart, shy and sometimes funny.
What do you do outside of school for fun? Why?
I like to go watch my nephews play soccer on Tuesdays and Fridays but I usually just sleep because it’s something I find really peaceful.
What career do you want to pursue? Why?
Radiology, I want to have a major other than just cosmetology.
When people get to know you, what are they most surprised to learn about you?
That I’m actually very talkative or that I have a really big family with 16 nephews and nieces.
What is something you know a weird amount about?
Probably math, it’s my favorite subject.
What’s on your phone background? Tell us why you chose that.
A picture of Big Bird hung up on my wall, it’s a nickname a special someone and I have for each other and he means a lot to me.
Tell us the story about what you are most proud of yourself for.
I’m proud of myself for not lacking in school and for keeping straight A’s throughout my whole life. My grades are something I’ve always really cared about.
Who is someone you are thankful for and why?
My sister because she is someone who I can talk to about anything without getting judged or feeling like a bother. We have gone through so much together and I feel like it’s what brings us closer, she reminds me everyday of how proud she is of me and of how loved I am.
What advice would you give to your younger self?
To enjoy school because it goes by way too fast because in a matter of time I’ll graduate and won’t get to make more memories with my friends. Also probably that some friends aren’t really friends and to not be afraid to cut them off.
What do you hope to be remembered for?
The girl who was very fun to be around and talk to.
What’s on your bucket list?
Traveling and hopefully getting a major in something I actually like.
