What is your favorite memory of high school? My favorite memory of high school was when we were marching in the Lions Club parade and it began down pouring right after we got pass the judges and still had almost the whole parade to play. Metschke had us playing Irresistible for the rest of the parade, we were the only band playing, but the crowd was cheering for us.

What advice can you offer underclassmen? My advice to underclassmen is high school will go fast so make the most of it. If you get into a situation where you are not comfortable or not enjoying, get yourself out of that situation. Also, you do not need to be in a "squad, click, or have a group of people" because those people that are in those groups you will not talk with these people after high school so be your own independent person, and be bold.

What are your future plans (college with major if known or workforce) and where do you hope to be in five years?
I plan on attending Northeast Community College pursing an Associate's Degree in Nursing. In five years, I hope to be in Neligh working at Antelope Memorial Hospital as a floor nurse, and in the emergency department. I also hope to be married and just starting my family.
