I’m involved with drama and Pep Club at school. I want to be an actress/author, so I’m taking a bunch of acting classes. I’m currently in Advanced Acting, and hopefully will be in Acting for Youth next year. My favorite acting exercize is improv, which is where you make everyting up on the spot. It’s fun to watch people do improv, and it’s usually pretty funny.

Music is a big part of my life. My favorite artists are the Jonas Brothers and Taylor Swift, but I listen to everything. I went to a Jonas Brothers concert July 22, and it was one of the best days of my life. They played all of their new songs (which were amazing!) and had awesome special effects, like fire and fireworks coming up from the stage.

I started to enjoy reading when I switched to the Fort Zumwalt district in the middle of eighth grade. I didn’t know anyone, so I went to the library all the time and found reading very enjoyable. I mostly read teen fiction and mystery, but I could probably read anything with a good plot.

It’s my love for books that made me realize I wanted to be an author. I started out posting stories on websites called FanFiction and FictionPress. One of my mom’s friends just had a book published, so she’s helping me with the publishing process. I hope to have it sent to a publishing agency by Christmas.

I come from a big family-mom, dad, step mom, step dad, 2 brothers, step sister, step brother, and a half sister on the way- so when I get married and have kids, I plan on having a big family.

After high school, I either would like to go to UCLA, Wash U, Boston Conservatory, or University of Iowa. I want to get a degree either in acting or creative writing.
