Q1: What song/artist got you through high school?
A: Two songs that got me through high school were “You Will Win” by Jekalyn Carr and “Made A Way” by Travis Greene because they fill me up with encouragement when I’m feeling stressed or when assignments seem impossible to complete.
Q2: What do you want to do after high school?
A: I want to study Fashion Design and hopefully minor in merchandising so I can own my own brand and store one day.
Q3: What advice do you have for underclassmen?
A: Try new things and take advantage of the numerous electives that North Point has to offer, even the ones that aren’t really talked about. Try putting yourself out there, and know that it’s okay to change your mind about what you want to do in the future. In my experience I had changed my major five times and decided on Fashion and Design by randomly singing up for the textiles and apparel class.
