Grade: 11

Family members: Renell (mother), Will (father), Ryah (sister)

Favorite subject(s): My favorite subjects are social studies and math. I have always enjoyed learning about history but I never really liked math until I took geometry my sophomore year with Mr. Frank and everything clicked. So far precalculus has been great this year and I plan to take both trigonometry and calculus next year, both of which I never imagined myself looking forward to.

Activities: Band, orchestra, choir, psychology club, German club, Liberty Life (school newspaper), Big Brother Big Sister, National Honors Society, lacrosse, tennis and Scholastic Scrimmage.

Next steps: I would like be an exchange student between high school and college and then I plan to study journalism in college.

Career goals: My goal is to become a journalist for National Geographic.

Heroes: One of my heroes is Stephen Hawking, I admire his perseverance, brilliance and his ability to learn and be flexible.

Hobbies: I enjoy reading and playing the fiddle.

Volunteer/community work: Big Brother, Big Sister

Likes: I like going to the football games as a member of the Liberty HS Grenadier Band, playing tennis and reading when it is raining.

Dislikes: I do not like gummy worms and I do not like being late.

Greatest accomplishment (so far): One of the accomplishments that I am most proud of is taking AP physics and understanding it.

Advice for peers: Take advantage of as many extracurricular activities as you can. It’s fun to meet new people who share your interests and hang out with them outside of class.
