What's something you're looking forward to that might surprise people?

I have had the privilege of having a support system throughout the entire school. The staff, teachers, and students have truly nurtured my interest in being a leader and have supported me the entire way. Thank you to all of the staff members who encouraged me through my senior year as I navigated a busy schedule, stayed active in my school, and reminded me of my confidence when times felt overwhelming.
