Hi! My name is Keayah Releford, and I’m in the 9th grade and I play the harp. I would describe myself as a kind, quiet, hardworking, competitive, and determined person. I’m from Atlanta, Georgia, and I was raised on the east side of the city.

I consider myself an athlete, which has helped shape my strong work ethic and competitive spirit. I enjoy playing basketball and flag football, and I love going out with my friends in my free time.

For school, I’ve spent most of my education at Drew Charter School. I went to Drew for kindergarten, then attended Toomer Elementary for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade. After that, I returned to Drew for 4th and 5th grade, and I still go to Drew today.

Before I became passionate about basketball and interested in becoming a nurse, I actually wanted to be a police officer. Over time, my goals have changed, but I’ve always stayed focused and determined.
