Plans following High school? I am going to attend the University of Montana-Western and major in Elementary Education with a minor in Early Childhood Development.

The earliest memory I have is during the summer when my grandpa would hook a wagon to the back of a lawn mower and drive my sister, cousin, and I around the house.

Do you have any fears or phobias? Spiders. One time my friend was staying the night and we found a spider in my room. We tried to kill it and we lost it in my bed. So we spent the weekend out in the living room.

How do you handle stress? I usually try to take some time for myself. I try to go out with friends to get my mind off of the things that are stressing me out.

What were your favorite toys growing up and what were they like? I don’t remember having any favorite toys growing up. I do remember having this blanket that I took everywhere!

What would your dream job be? My dream job would be an elementary school teacher but getting paid as much as a doctor.

What do you think makes a marriage last? I think love and compassion, honesty and trust, and commitment are the most important things to make a marriage last.

Is bullying a problem at your school? Why or why not? I think there is some form of bullying at any school. I have not seen any bullying firsthand at my school and I think that people overuse the word bullying today, teenagers today often times use jokes as ways to make connections with people they know and are friends with. I believe St. Regis school takes the personalities of each student into consideration and I feel as though everyone is welcomed.

What would you do if you won the lottery? If I won, the lottery I would buy a lake house on Flathead Lake and some jet skis to go with it.
