Q: Are you involved in any extracurricular activities?

Q: What is your next goal after high school?

A: Next year, I will be attending Harvard College in Cambridge, Mass. to study economics and compete on the varsity swim team. I hope to continue to have success in the classroom by taking challenging and interesting courses and become the best and fastest swimmer I can be during my four years in college.

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

A: My biggest challenge so far has been working on and attempting to better my time management skills. It can be difficult to successfully tackle all of your goals when you have so many activities going on at once. I often have trouble finishing my schoolwork and being able to go to bed at a reasonable time, for I frequently get home late from practice and lifting.

Q: What do you want to be remembered for?

A: I most want to remembered for my dedication and persistence to the multiple clubs and organizations to which I belong. I hope some of my successes act as an inspiration to younger Salisbury students who might also have lofty goals. Nothing is impossible with the right work ethic and dedication.

Q: Who is in your family?

A: My parents Gregory Reihman and Kristin Reihman. I am the oldest of four siblings. My youngest brother is Xavier, my only sister is Tula and my other brother is Baxter. I also have two dogs named Romey and Chase.

Q: Do you have someone you look up to?

A: I most look up to my parents, who have been role models for me my entire life. I hope to one day live my life as happily and successfully as they do theirs and being able to look up to them has certainly been a benefit to me.

Q: Do you have any advice for your peers?

A: My one tip of advice to my peers is to continue to chase your goals. Motivation is nothing more than a feeling, which means that nobody feels motivated all the time, the same way that nobody feels happy all the time. Keep fighting and working toward your goals even when you hit roadblocks and feel unmotivated, because it will all pay off in the end.
