ZOOMING IN

Q: Do you ever get overwhelmed with Student Council and Farmerettes, and how do you deal with it?

A: Sometimes it’s overwhelming, but it’s pretty rewarding in the end.

Q: What keeps you motivated to do both at the same time and not choose one over the other?

A: Well I’ve danced since I was 3 so I love dancing, so I could never quit that. And then Student Council, I love mentoring the children and stuff like that.

Q: What do you like to do in your freetime?

A: In my freetime I usually just watch Netflix or go to work.

Q: How would you describe life in Student Council?

A: It’s always really busy because we’re always doing different things for different organizations or helping others and things like that.

Q: What’s your favorite thing about being a Farmerette?

A: My favorite thing about being a Farmerette is probably the performances and getting to know so many people.

Q: What do you do at your job?

A: I bake things, like sweets and what-not.

Q: How do you prioritize between Farmerettes and Student Council?

A: Since dance usually always comes first for me, it’s really not that hard. If I need to come up with choreography, I can usually do it the night before. It’s pretty simple for me.

Q: What do your parents think of all the things you’re involved in?

A: They’re really proud of me for managing so many different things.

Q: Do any qualities from Student Council carry over to Farmerettes?

A: Yes, its more of people skills and being a good leader and making sure that I’m not run over by other people.
