The brand new, rebuilt 2019-2020 Acadeca family!
The joy of getting one right as a team...or are we just happy to see you?

My awesome partner since middle school ❤
My debate family... As a part of the this travel debate team, we did not let the miles that separated us get in the way of being a team. In seven years of training, my debate family has me how to properly pen-flip, how to stay up for 4 nights in a row, how to live up to a nickname like "Cheese Graters", and most importantly, how to have fun while breaking down an argument!
We were so excited to be qualified for the Silver Tournament of Champions in this picture; we didn't imagine we would end up with a gold bid later that day!
When I founded Students Take on Cancer, it was my way of flipping the narrative on my mom's breast cancer. She was diagnosed during Spring Break of my freshman year.
