Mukwonago High School
Please highlight your accomplishments while in High School.
Throughout high school, I have taken a variety of classes including honors and AP, as well as electives geared toward the medical field. I have been in AMP all 4 years of high school and joined HOSA my sophomore year. Outside of the classroom, I ran cross country and track. I am a 4x individual state qualifier in cross country, finishing 12th in my senior year. I was also named to first team all-conference in my junior and senior years. As for track, I qualified for the 1600m and 800m at state during my sophomore and junior track seasons and am aiming to do the same in my senior season. I recently broke the school record in the 1600m, running a time of 4:57.3. During the winter I was on the Peak Nordic Ski team and traveled around the state cross-country skiing and we were state champs my sophomore and senior year. Throughout all 4 years of high school, I was named a scholar athlete and received the Female outstanding scholar-athlete award my senior year.

I would love to have lunch with one of my biggest role models – Mikayla Shiffrin, a world-class downhill skier.

We would meet at Fork in the Road for some mac and cheese!
