Through my many years of school, kindergarten through high school, I have had countless numbers of people and experiences that have shaped me into the young woman I am today. My most recent experience that has taught me so much about myself and life is my first theater experience, UIL one act play. For years and years my parents encouraged me to try out for one-act play.

One of the primary concepts students learn is how to lead with their minds instead of their hearts. Whether it is a family member or their teachers; somebody is always brainwashing them into believing that intelligence determines success.
