- What is one thing about yourself you want the upper school to know?
- There are many things that I love but I especially love English soccer. My favorite team Tottenham Hotspur, so if you see me wearing anything with Spurs on it, I am talking about the soccer team NOT SAN ANTONIO. P.S. if anyone else is a fan, hit me up. P.S.S I love James Franco
- What are some things you would like to accomplish by the end of the year?
- Get a varsity letter
- Participate in the dance concert or some other type of art performance
- Make the last year memorable.
- Make HB a place where people can feel happy with their own accomplishments inside of having others recognition. Whether you planted a tree, got published in a paper for SREP, or got your first A on a test, be proud of your accomplishments.
- What were your first thought when you won?
- My first thought when I won wasn’t a thought, but was a feeling of pure joy. I was in the EC room with Ms Shah and Godshall, while a child’s toy went off, and that is when I was told. I was smiling all day, but I couldn’t explain to anyone why I was smiling. It was such a great moment.
- Why did you go for this position?
- I have really admired all of the Senate presidents before me such as Vanessa Logan and Alyzah. I wanted to give back to a place that gave me so much.
- What were you thoughts when you made your speech?
- I was kind of nervous, kind of excited. Talking in front of people is an adrenaline rush for me. As I was giving it, I felt like everything I said was genuine and from the heart. I was also shaking a little bit because of public speaking and due to my height, I had to stand on my toes. Maybe for morning meeting next year I’ll get a stool.
- In your speech, you mentioned the school spirit was low, how are you hoping to address this issue?
- I want to make it a goal or a competition to try to go to at least one home game per season. I also want real pep rallies before rival games to get hb pumped.
- When did you come to hb? and where did you come from?
- I came to hb my freshman year from Twinsburg. I really can’t imagine going to high school anywhere else though because it is perfect.
- If you could live as one teacher for the day, who would it be and why?
- I would be Mr. Hatcher because I feel like we are similar to an extent. He is a relaxed person and his classes are cool. I also would want to play with his children for a day. And an even bigger bonus is that I can call Scott Parsons my best friend.
- Outside of hb, what other activities do you like to do?
- I usually play soccer year round, but besides that, most of everything I do is through hb. I do SREP, volunteer, and play sports. I also like to knit in my free time to relax.
- What are you most excited about in this upcoming year?
- I’m going to be a senior and get all the benefits of being a senior like running carnival and senior privileges. I am also excited to make Mr. Christs last year special and memorable. I am excited to meet all of the new kids and see the others get older and wiser. I am also excited to get input from students to see what they want.
