Favorite place on campus: My favorite place on campus is the chapel. It is so peaceful in there and I just love being able to go and talk to Jesus throughout my day.

What is/was your favorite class at Pius X, and why? My favorite class was anatomy because the dissections were a lot of fun and Mrs. Steenson was a great teacher.
How has your faith journey evolved during your time at our school? Are there particular experiences or programs that have significantly impacted your spiritual growth? My faith journey greatly evolved throughout my time at Pius. Being able to go to and be apart of events like Restore, Pack the Chap, retreats, campus ministry, and being apart of a discipleship group really helped me take another step in my faith. Having the opportunity to be able to go to Mass, confessions, and adoration at school was a great blessing.
What are you most proud of about your time at Pius X? I am most proud of who I became as a person and all the friends I made!
Where are your plans after high school (college, military, job, etc.)? What do you plan to study? After college I plan on going to SDSU to major in pre-veterinary medicine and minor in business.
