What are your plans after high school?
I plan to attend Cal Poly Pomona and get a master's degree in Civil Engineering and continue being a musician. What was your best high school memory? My best high school memory is spending time at the homecoming dance with all of my friends and breaking it down in front of the class What is your message to incoming Freshman? Freshmen, high school is going to be tough and I know because I've been through and seen it all. You don't need to care about what you see in media about what high school is painted to be (popularity, having a significant other, etc.) Just be yourself and find yourself a group of friends that you can call family, I know the Panther Brigade is essentially a second family to me. What is your 5-year plan? My 5-year plan is to attend college, get a part time job, try to branch out as a musician as a whole, and live life to the fullest. |

Best High School Memory: Band and Orchestra festival my freshmen year, this experience bonded our orchestra together. This was the day I realized orchestra was more than a class, it's a family. Message to Freshmen: Relish in your high school experience. Make mistakes, meet new people, try new experiences; high school is made for this. 5 year plan: Receive a bachelors degree in theater and complete my teacher's education. I hope to one day return to Diamond Ranch to teach theater to young aspiring artists in our community! |
