Field day entrances are always a highlight. I love working together and brainstorming at House, and then seeing what everyone else came up with on field day.

What advice or encouragement would you give to younger students at Westminster?
Find your place! You don’t have to try out for every leadership opportunity that comes your way, but find an area to invest in, whether it be a house challenge or sport or extracurricular. Having something to love or look forward to makes all the difference.

Please share a funny memory or highlight from your time at Westminster:
The Universal Studios choir trip, specifically sprinting from park to park in the dark.

Senior Thesis Title: 
How the Picture Presented of Women is Wrong and Why Christians Have a Responsibility to Fix It

Senior Thesis Statement: 
Today’s film and literature promotes harmful views of women and it is important for us as the Christian consumers of this media to gain awareness, support female creators, and advocate for better role models for women and girls.

Brief Description of Senior Thesis: 
In the midst of modern identity politics and gender crisis, the words “women’s representation” cause many to roll their eyes. But with closer examination, many will find that poor women’s representation in the media we consume is a pressing issue and one in which the action of Christians is not just necessary but vital to protecting our young girls and women across the world. In order to address this issue effectively and understand why it matters, we must first understand the issue with past models of women in the media and what we should replace them with.

Plans: To study Art Education at Mississippi College
