Before I was at Moeller, I attended Loveland Schools through middle school and high school. There, during middle school I done the theater musicals there, something that I would later do in freshman year of high school. I would go on to play minor characters on plays such as The Wizard of Oz and Seussical. Besides that, I had a keen interest in bowling which I joined as a club in middle school and later joined the team in sophomore year in high school.
When I came to Moeller halfway through sophomore year, I would participate in many volunteering opportunities like making PBJ sandwiches and even donating blood. I am currently doing speech and debate. I even went to 2 retreats during my time at Moeller. Most recently we did Moe Term and went to local places like The Zoo and the Museum. And even just last week I went to Washington DC for March for Life.
Visiting March for Life in DC was perhaps the most memorable experience of my life because not only did we participate in the largest annual human demonstration in the world but also visited so many landmarks in DC and even walked around the capital. It is an opportunity I never envisioned entering 2026 but nevertheless it was sure an incredible memorable moment. Too bad that I lost my phone on the trip, that kind of lower the memory but even then, I still had a great day in the end, just wish I took pictures. ):
When I graduate Moeller this year, I will still ponder this day on where I will be in 10 years form now. My parents think I will be a great lawyer. While I have the qualifications to become one, I don’t believe I will be one because I’m not interested in defending serial killers who are persumably terrorists. But despite that, I can be a civil corporate lawyer who can do lawsuits. That is what they believe in me. I have an interest in possibly exploring the field. But my true dream is to get into animation and possibly work for Disney or start my own animation company. I really would like to be optimistic and believe I will be working for Disney in 10 years , making my own animated movie, but only time will tell if that where I will be since that is very hard to get into too and I can’t doubt it.
