What was your reaction after hearing you were one of the nominees?
I was really excited and honored that my classmates voted [for] me.
Did you want to be homecoming queen and how did you get people to vote for you?
Being nominated is a big honor and it was very fun. Did I want to be? I mean yeah, who doesn’t want to be on court. And get people to vote for me, I didn’t, like, campaign or anything, it was just surprising.
What do you think of this year’s theme for homecoming?
Well I’m on student council, so I’m in support of it. I like the fact that we’re doing more volunteer work and benefiting the community rather than just making it all like a popularity contest.
How do you plan on involving the student body with the homecoming activities?
This year we’re having a lot of volunteer work during the school day and after school that I think should help the student body get involved more.
What school activities do you participate in?
I’m a captain of the Rock Bridge Bruin Girls, a leader of Rock Bridge FCA and then a representative for student council … Young Republicans. I can’t think of anything else right now.
Which homecoming activity do you look forward to the most?
The dance-off’s always really fun, so maybe that.
And which do you dread the most?
Probably the dance-off also, [at] the same time. I don’t have good dance moves, but it’s so fun.
