Favorite School Memory
Having deep theological discussions in Mrs. LaBelle’s class. I love to ask questions and have really enjoyed being able to question and find good answers!

I love cooking, playing sports, photography, writing music, and exploring nature.

My parents for always being there for me, my Uncle Josh for teaching me to look to God in my darkest moments, and Charlie Kirk for showing me how to share my beliefs with love and respect.

Most impactful high school activity
I’d say soccer has had the biggest impact on me. It’s taught me to never give up and to always represent God both on and off the field.
Current Plans for after you graduate
I plan to go into the workforce and work with people with disabilities, and after that, I plan to attend the police academy when I turn 21 to become part of the search and rescue team in the K9 division.
In what way has your time at Calvary Christian School helped shape your worldview?
It’s taught me to question things and search for answers, because not everything is always what it seems.
Any advice for students entering high school?
My advice is to just be real and always show God’s love, no matter where you are or who’s watching.
