Q. What do you believe are three keys to being a good student? Show up. Be present. Reach out for help before you are over your head. 

Q. What is your favorite class? I loved my Consumer Math class that I took. I not only learned a lot, I learned in all of my classes, but I learned things that I use every day. 

Q. Who is your favorite teacher? My favorite teacher is Ms. Pulito, not only does she take the time to teach me the curriculum but she cares about me. When I look back on my high school career, I am so thankful she was a part of it. 

Q. If you could change on thing about your educational experience, what would it be and why? I would have enjoyed the ride more. I have always been goal driven and that all I cared about was getting my goal. I wish I would have taken a breath and tried a new thing, put myself out there and had more fun. 

Q. What accomplishment are you most proud? I am so proud of the impact that I have made on the people around me.
