Being Mr. FTHS is a huge honor. Why do you want to be Mr. FTHS? 

I want to be Mr. FTHS because I feel that I have succeeded in this school. I moved from one side of Manalapan (where you would be zoned for MHS) to the other (now zoned here) and I came into this school without knowing anybody. I quickly became comfortable in the school setting because I had teachers who were nice and caring towards me and I had fellow peers to welcome me into their lives. As a senior, I realize how much I have grown from my freshman year, and I realize that I am now able to do the same thing that people did to me when I was a freshman with no friends to other people who may feel alone or isolated. 

How would your teachers and/or coaches/advisors describe you?

I think my teachers would describe me as someone outspoken, hardworking, and friendly. I like to be kind to all my classmates and I like to make sure I am well and organized to succeed in school.
