Full Name: Elizabeth Nowlin
Parents: Lynne Nowlin
Siblings: Alora (20) and Haley (15)
Parent/Sibling Trait that you Admire: My sisters are both very hardworking. I look up to Alora because she takes all of her opportunities and takes chances. I like how Haley is always down for a Sonic run, even if she has to listen to me talk the whole time. My mom is compassionate and is always there for me. She is my biggest supporter and I know that I wouldn't be the person I am without her.
When I was young, I envisioned myself to be: A teacher.
Future Plans: I plan to attend Central College in Pella, Iowa where I will study elementary education and Spanish.
Where do you see yourself in 10 years: In ten years, I will be graduated from college, and hopefully teaching in a small town. If not that, then I hope I am teaching English as a second language abroad.
What is your most memorable moment from school years at Treynor: My most memorable moment from Treynor is definitely the time I went to Hugh O'Brian Youth leadership (HOBY). I had such an amazing time and I feel like that was the time I started to open up and take more risks. HOBY was an outside thing, however, the teachers selected to send me, and I am beyond grateful for that experience.
What extra-curricular activities were you involved in at Treynor? Jazz choir, concert choir, individual speech, large group speech, National Honor Society, Mentors in Violence Prevention, and JOI Club.
If you have a day without commitments, what would you most likely be doing? Creating a new art piece, reading, or chilling with my cat.
What are some of your favorites (e.g. books, movies, foods)? The Selection series, meatloaf and mashed potatoes, the Vampire Diaries.
What will you miss the most about THS? I will miss the relationships I have built with not only the students, but also the teachers and staff. I will also miss the activities I am involved in.
What advice would you give underclassmen? Even if you're nervous about something, just go for it. Be involved in everything that you are interested in, it will help you to make new friendships and grow as a person.
