Who do you admire the most and why? For me I have a lot of important women in my life... Maria Eagan, Audra Wilt, Wendy Roetemeyer, Susan Wilt and my grandma Donna Mitchell. I say this because I have grown up with these women along with my mother as amazing role models. All of which are not only kind but so selfless and always think of others. They are so supportive in the community and do so much for people around them! When I think of the woman I want to be in the future they all come to mind as an amazing mother, community member and friend.
What teacher had the biggest influence on you and why? My Kindergarten teacher Mrs. Schmitz and First Grade teacher Mrs. Dimmitt, because they always showed so much patience and kindness. To this day they check in, see how I am doing, support me in any way possible and wish me the best in life!
