What is the charity you chose to represent?
The Kidney Cancer Association because my dad passed away from Stage Four Kidney Cancer last November after two years of fighting and endless treatments. He was an amazing man and truly the best dad.

What TV show/movie character are you most like?

Attend college (not sure where yet), major in Nursing, and eventually become a pediatric nurse or a nurse practitioner.

Every teacher that I have had each year has left an amazing impact on me, but some of my most favorite teachers are Madame Kaiser, Miss Gill, Mrs. Scardino-Welch, Mr. Holmes, Mrs. Ackley, and Mrs. Reali. They have all helped, guided and supported me in many different ways and I cannot thank them enough.
