Please tell us a little bit about your family.
My Dad’s a bug nerd who’s helped me fall in love with most of my likes and passions. My mother is the nurturing one, who supports me in all I do. My older sisters are the ones that I go out and have fun with and my baby sister is the one we all take turns looking after. We love vacationing and my older sisters and I enjoy spending time with our parents doing various activities. We’re all extremely close and enjoy each others company.

What are your plans after graduation?
I will attend the University of Cincinnati’s DAAP program and major in fine arts. I hope to become an illustrator. I also enjoy writing and hope to publish my first finished novel in the summer. I like to act and will also partake in The Covedale theater’s CYPT production of Anything Goes.

Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio. It’s the place where I feel that my family is at their joint happiest. We’ve never had a bad experience there that killed the mood and it’s our favorite vacation spot.

My favorite movie is Avengers: Infinity War. It helped me convince myself that superhero movies could be cinema. My favorite show is The Office. It’s just outrageously random and funny to me. In the first six and a half seasons, there’s no full moment with Michael Scott.
