What are your plans after high school?

After high school, I plan to attend the University of Michigan while majoring in pre-law (although my major may change) and then go on to complete law school before finding a job and starting a family.

What is your favorite memory from high school?

My favorite memory from high school has to be every time I have tp'd the boys cross country team.  It's a cross country tradition at St. Joe that the girls tp the boys the night of the first home meet and get the girls back later.  I love how all of the girls include each other in this event and it's just a fun tradition.

Who has influenced you the most and why?

I think my Aunt Michelle has influenced me the most in my life.  She had thyroid cancer and died right before my 11th birthday, but I still have learned so much from her.  She was intelligent, compassionate, and very strong-willed which allowed her to create a foundation to raise money towards cancer research while also excelling at work and living an adventurous life.  I aspire to be like her every day.

If you could have any superpower, what would it be and why?

If I could have any superpower it would be teleportation.  I would love to be able to travel anywhere in the world or just not have to wake up extra early to drive 15 minutes to school.
