What activity did you miss this spring?

"Little Women - The Musical. I was supposed to be the head of wardrobe. For Moon Over Buffalo, I was head of hair and makeup. I have spent the last four years dedicating my time to the theater department."

"Participating in this year's Thespian Convention was a once in a lifetime experience that I'll deeply cherish. I felt so much pride in myself and my group for our superior rating for the tech design: hair and makeup challenge."

"I have been in the cast of a few productions over the years, but have mostly found a home with the crew of our plays and musicals."

Any additional information you would want to add?

"It is devastating to me that I didn't know that Moon Over Buffalo was going to be my last show. There was no possible way to prepare myself for the reality that I'd never get to share a stage area with my amazing peers ever again. That being said, I know that it won't be my last show ever and I look forward to what is to come in my future in Theater and I'm so thankful for Mrs. Nigus for teaching me everything I know."

What do you plan on doing after graduation?

"Going into cosmetology in Las Vegas and participating in professional theater as a hair stylist and makeup artist. I hope to one day open my own spa if professional theater doesn't work out. I want to specifically study aesthetics on the side of makeup and hair."
