Q: What grade are you in?

A: I am in 12th grade at Emmaus High School.

Q: What is your favorite subject? Why?

A: Science. Specifically biology/anatomy and physiology. The human body is fascinating.

Q: Have you received any special awards or recognition?

A: Each year of high school I have received an award for maintaining a cumulative GPA above 4.0 and received an award last year recognizing students with a passion for science. I also received National Merit Commendation for my performance on the PSAT.

Q: Are you involved in any extracurricular activities?

A: I am involved in National Honor Society and the golf team at school and outside of school I volunteer at Lehigh Valley Hospital and Cetronia Ambulance Corps.

Q: What is your next goal after high school?

A: Immediately after high school I plan to go to college, but I can’t be specific as to where I want to go. In the long run, I see myself going to medical school and becoming a surgeon.

Q: What would you say your biggest challenge has been so far?

A: To be honest with you, I’ve had a pretty good life so far. I guess sometimes it can be difficult to balance school work with extracurriculars and other activities. This fall, I had the golf season to take up a big chunk of my time. I am in an EMT class that takes up eight hours every Sunday and I take numerous advanced placement classes, including a college anatomy class at Penn State Lehigh Valley, with coursework to match.

Q: What do you want to be remembered for?

A: I want to be remembered for always having a positive outlook on life and for occasionally saying something funny. And it is pretty cool to share your last name with a Muppet.

Q: Who is in your family?

A: My mom, Lisa, dad, Eric, brother, Zak and dog, Lambeau.

Q: Do you have someone you look up to?

A: My parents. They put everything they could into raising me to be successful in life and I don’t want to let the opportunity they’ve given me go to waste.

Q: Do you have any advice for your peers?

A: Five letters: R-E-L-A-X. It’ll all work out; you don’t need to have your life together as a senior in high school.
