Most Significant Accomplishments

4. What do you feel is your most significant accomplishment? My most significant accomplishment is stepping out of my comfort zone freshman year and joining the Forensics team. I no longer have a fear of public speaking in front of people whom I don't know. I have made tons of new friends and developed new opinions and views on certain aspects that affect our world. I have competed at state twice and been told by multiple people I always look happy and engaged watching other people's pieces. I am competing at state for my last time in March and have such an appreciation for everyone who has helped me the past three years.

Describe any significant person, event, or happening that has influenced you:
My great uncle Eddie greatly influenced the person I am now. He was the kindest, compassionate, charismatic, and unconditional loving person I have ever met. He taught me the values of hard work, respect, and a how to be a leader in my own way. No one ever had anything to say bad about him. He was a talented wood carpenter whom always won awards at county fairs. He treated my great aunt like a queen and showed me how I should be treated. My family has grown closer together since his passing causing us to appreciate the time we have on earth. It has been seven months since he passed and not a day goes by I wish to
carry on my great uncle's legacy.
