Favorite Quote: Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure... than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat. - Theodore Roosevelt
Favorite Card/Board Game: Apples to Apples
Favorite High School Athletics Memory: Wheaton North hosts a meet every year called the Falcon Classic. When I was a Freshman we had it at North side park. I remember there were so many girls in the open race, that the ground shook like a stamped of wild animals when they got out of the starting line. It was the coolest experience as a new runner. It never was the same since the running course was moved the next year.
Favorite Warhawk Athletics Memory: Getting to compete at the Conference meet as a Freshman.
