I’m so excited to say that I will be attending Brown University as part of the class of 2029! I plan to concentrate in Theatre Arts and Performance Studies and Music during my time at my new home. This certainly wasn’t the path that I initially foresaw for myself, but I have never been more sure that it is the correct one. I am so endlessly grateful for my family, friends, and mentors who helped me get here, especially my two wonderful parents, my brother, @thepsychmd, and @rush.mya411. Go bears🤎

I auditioned for the All-Ohio show this year partially as a joke, thinking that there was no way I’d get in. I don’t know where I would be if I hadn’t. I am so grateful for the cast, crew, and, most importantly, family that put this together. What a blessing it is to convey such an important story with such lovely people. Thank you @smjwrites for being the most insightful, caring, and loving director that we could ask for. This show will forever hold a very special place in my heart.

Shoutout to @dshs.theatre Titanic for making it to State Conference. So proud to be a part of that family as well.

Also, in the midst of this madness, welcome my beautiful, beautiful niece, Estelle.

Beyond grateful to have music directed and played Frederick Barrett in Titanic at my home away from home. Thank you to T3 for being the reason that I go to school every day. Thank you to Alyssa for being the best co-director I could have asked for. Thank you to my dog, Hugo. State conference here we come🤫

I look to be grateful in all facets of my life, so…
Thank you to my parents and family, who have supported me through this season and 12 more before it. Through injury and failure, you guys are consistent. I am so lucky to have you all on my side. Mya and Leo, you two certainly win fans of the year.
Thank you to some of my best friends on the soccer team. I’m a better person because of you.
Thank you to my back line for making me seem like a far better keeper than I am.
Thank you to the students and fans who came out to support us.
Thank you to all of my coaches for helping me reach my goals and making me into a half decent soccer player.
Thank you to the people and experiences that will make me miss this sport deeply.
Thank you to Irish soccer💚 by @simonpnewkirk
