Who is the teacher that impacted you the most?
My health science teacher, Mrs. Raynor. I had her at Weddington High School during my junior year. She was always kind and wanted to know us as more than just a student. Her passion for medicine inspired me to look into the medical field, where I fell in love with the profession.
What is the best part about being a Senior?
The change in mindset- I am living in the present more because I know that it will be my last year here.

What is your dream job?
ER Nurse or Doctor in a big city hospital.
What is something about you that would surprise people?
I hate sweet tea. Many people think I am a sweet, blonde, southern belle but I tend to surprise people with my boyish nature. Although I love getting my nails done and putting on makeup, I would much rather wear my sweats, eat some wings, and watch football.

What is something you are grateful for?
The amazing support system I have. My friends, family, teachers, administrators, and coworkers have been so encouraging and loving. There is truly no one else I'd rather spend life with.
What is the best advice for parents have given you?
Put it in your past and move on- there is nothing you can do about it now, so learn from it and put your best foot forward.
