Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

Age: 16

Family: Parents, Vicky and Kory, and my 1-year-old son, Baylor.

Where are you from? Geneva

If you are from Albert Lea, which elementary school did you attend? I went to school in NRHEG before attending the ALC.

Favorite teacher of all time and why: Mrs. Bidne because she is always here for me.

Favorite book/author: “Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul” by Jack Canfield, Mark Victor Hansen and Kimberly Kirberger

What do you want to do after high school? I want to get my CNA next year and work with older people.

What advice would you give to younger students in Albert Lea? Don’t let anyone tell you that you can’t do something or succeed in life. I found out I was pregnant and it was a big shock. I had Baylor at 15 on Dec. 8, 2022. I am also a Type 1 diabetic. Don’t listen to people who think you can’t succeed no matter what you are doing. I am still a teen, but I am also a good mother, too.
