Mrs. Kennedy, because she was the first teacher I had who could engage me and teach me completely new ways of thinking as well as be supportive of me outside the classroom. Her class was the first time I remember specifically being excited to go to a certain class.

What is your favorite twirling memory? 

Although it sounds strange, my favorite twirling memory is the first time we lost championships with a team I was on. This happened my freshman year, and the show is still my favorite out of the six years I have been a twirler. I loved the show so much and was so proud of what we accomplished in our final performance and throughout the entire season. The fact that this feeling did not go away even though we didn’t win means that sense of pride was real and not dependent on a score, making it an amazing feeling and my favorite memory of twirling so far.

What is your favorite movie?

Ferris Bueller’s Day Off

Who is your role model and why? 

My role model is my mom because she is incredibly confident and hardworking no matter what, and there is so much I can learn from her.

What’s next after high school graduation? 

After graduation, I hope to attend college for something related to social studies. I’m not completely sure what else I want to do, but I can’t wait to find something that I love!
