Never in my life did I think I would be where I am now. The summer before my senior year I remember thinking that I wanted to do something big. I wanted to graduate knowing that I had gone as far as I could possibly go.
I first began to accept leadership roles as stage manager of drama productions, and the first official president of our schools AV club. This inspired me to become the first ever student director of a musical that rehearsed alongside the other two additional musicals that my school held. During all of these projects I found a love for filmmaking. I held a halloween special for my AV club to write, film, and edit in only 5 hours. I completed a documentary about trusted adults in schools and filmed multiple newsletters for our school’s website.
During all of this I juggled my responsibilities as a student, a director, a club president, and a worker for the school, streaming sports games and running the equipment in our auditorium.
While I have many accomplishments, these projects are the ones that made me into the person I am today. Live a life without limits, and make the impossible possible.
