Do you play any sports?
I play volleyball. I have been playing since sixth grade, and I have been on three club teams since then. This year, I played for a club team called Milwaukee Skyline. I also played in middle school, but not on the Homestead team.
What is your favorite thing about playing volleyball?
My favorite thing about it is that it makes me really happy to play, and I love that I get the chance to play with my friends on the same team.
Do you have any siblings?
I have one brother, Andrew. He is 16 and a sophomore at Homestead.
Do you have any pets?
I have one cat named Bella. We have had her for about four or five years, and I hate her.
Why do you hate her?
She would always run away from me and never let me pet her. Also, she always hisses at me.
If you were a sandwich, which type would you be?
I would probably be a grilled cheese because it’s my favorite type of sandwich.
If you could fill an empty pool with anything, what would it be?
I would probably fill it with jello because it would be really fun to try to swim in it.
What has been your favorite part of high school so far?
My favorite part has probably been all the sporting events because it’s really fun to either dress up for football games or to just go and cheer for your friends.
What are you looking forward to the most in your next three years of high school?
I am really looking forward to joining different sports, like soccer. Also, I am looking forward to joining clubs like Spanish Club or Best Buddies. I am also really excited to meet lots of new people.
