Conn What are your leadership roles on campus?
On campus, I love to immerse myself in a variety of clubs and activities. For the second year, I have been the president of Placer's Key Club! I am also the senior class president. I am involved with our CSF club and serve as the community outreach officer. In addition, I also love to participate in the Outdoor Environmental Club and the Creative Writing Creative Writing Club.
What are you looking forward to this year as you serve on the Board? This year, I am looking forward to playing an active role in representing my student body. I feel it is of the utmost importance to be a voice for my peers' opinions, concerns, and praises in bettering the ways our Board aims to serve our students. I am passionate about creating a more informed student body that has better access to our Board's initiatives. I feel that in order to have a seat at the table, one must always be well-versed in the subject; with that, in order to give students the opportunity to share their voices, they must first be well-informed.
What are your hobbies? Outside of school, I mostly spend my time with family and friends, typically in any setting that involves a body of water. I love to wake-surf, swim, boat, and ski when we are lucky enough to receive some good snow! One of my greatest ambitions for this year is to take up crafting, despite my very artistically challenged self. In particular, I hope to learn how to crochet! What is your favorite food? If I could eat one food for the rest of my life, I would never hesitate to say pasta. No matter the shape, size, sauce, or filling, I will always love and be able to finish a big bowl of pasta. I have been fixated on a specific pasta recipe that went viral online during the pandemic, the wonderful Spicy Vodka Pasta. Since then, I have incorporated that dish into my monthly meal plan, if not on several occasions.
Where is your favorite vacation destination? My favorite vacation destination is Cinque Terra in Italy. I visited when I was ten years old and have dreamed of going back ever since. I fell in love with the beautiful sight of the Mediterranean Sea and the rich culture filled with delicious food (especially the pasta), music, and kind people. I am currently planning my return with my sister to visit next summer after saving up for the last year. A long-time goal of mine has also always been to study abroad in Italy for a summer in college! What is an interesting fact about you that you'd like to share? One of my most interesting—yet embarrassing—stories has to be the time I got my finger stuck in a Homegoods shopping cart. Resulting in an entire team of firefighters assisting me in cutting my finger out with an electric saw. After trying quite literally everything and hours in the store, we were left with no other option but to call for help. Despite the unique and, at the time for 9-year-old me, humiliating circumstances I had landed myself in, it proved to be one of the funniest stories I tell to this day. Anything else you'd like to add? I am beyond honored to serve as a Student Board Member, and I look forward to a fantastic year!
