Sydney is a senior this year, taking her final classes to fill her graduation requirements, as well as the unique classes offered at Boulder High such as Newspaper. In joining The Owl community, she hopes to improve her writing in a more journalistic- and opinionated-based style. Additionally, she is excited to reach a broader audience within the school, rather than writing for teachers or a grade. She believes joining a class and community like this will lead her to learn more styles and ideas to succeed past high school. When not focusing her energy on school, Sydney dances, hoping to be a professional dancer in the near future. She is inspired by the strength and grace dancers fight for to succeed, knowing that only few make it within the grueling competition that is dance. She isn’t all work though — humor is a big part of her personality and she values communication with those around her. Something Sydney is incredibly proud of is her extensive sock collection, containing fuzzy socks, animal socks, toe socks, knee high socks, and more. Sydney loves food very much, eating almost all the time with any food she can find. And while she will eat almost anything, she has a preference for red/purple grapes over green grapes, in favor of the crisp texture and sweet flavor.
