Describe yourself in three words. Thoughtful, bright, optimistic.
What are your plans after graduation? I’m going to U.C. Santa Barbara. I’m a film major and I’m going to minor in creative writing, and hopefully I’ll get to do something with movies in the future.

How did you choose your major? It’s always been something I’ve been really into, and whenever I watch movies I pay more attention to things like whether the music fits the scene and whether the directing is good than other people do. And I’m making a documentary; my brother and a couple of my friends are in it, and it’s about type 1 diabetics who also have ADHD. It’s a really difficult combination, and there isn’t a lot of information about it.
What’s your favorite memory of high school? I always liked spirit weeks, and prom and ball, and Mr. Mustang.
Who is your role model? Probably my mother, because she kind of does everything. She works and she has time for her family, and she’s good at everything she does.
