    Ever since I was a little kid I knew that I had a passion for all things creative. Whether my passion was writing, dancing, reading, art, photography, music, or film my parents have always supported me. I am lucky to have had the privilege to express myself in two of my passions throughout my high school career: dancing and writing.

    Journalism allowed me to explore the written word and dancing on Silver Stars as well as through a studio gave me an opportunity to create art through movement. Silver Stars and newspaper helped me figure out who I am as a person.

    I am so privileged to have had such a loving group of friends and family because they are a fantastic bunch. Even though high school was tough and not really my thing, I had help with friends, family, and music to help me get out of the ridiculous high school funk.

    I did learn a lot about myself throughout my high school career and the music I listened to frequently.

    This fall I will be attending Arizona State University and majoring in film (visual)/audio production. I am ready to move on with life and accept new opportunities and challenges with an open mind.

    Hopefully the next time you see me I will be directing the next cult classic or I will be channeling my inner Tarantino for creating a rockin’ sound track
