For one, I interviewed two local residents who have recently published their own work. By meeting with Kateyln Freydel
The three influential values that potentially shaped my life are maturity, reflection, and sacrifice. The two new values that I would like to implement in my life are grit and positivity.

Freshman year when I took this test, I never thought that I would be sitting in the position as President of my sorority. To me, it’s extremely interesting to think that I have had these strengths for so long, and in college I am finally putting them to the test while challenging my leadership skills.
