I’m grateful to Hotchkiss for being the stability in life when change has been constant. Leaving what is now so comfortable is scary, but I’m forever grateful for the relationships I can rely on, lessons I’ve learned, and failures that have pushed me to grow. Take a risk, try something new, speak up for yourself, and start early (don’t wait until the last two weeks to start your bucket list!). Go to that Black Box or under-the-lights game, walk to Lakeville, but do prioritize! Say yes to things, step outside what feels comfortable and familiar. I never would’ve thought that I’d write and edit for The Record, take classes like limnology, give tours... the list goes on. 

Thank you, Hotchkiss, for being home for the last four years. I’ve truly grown so much and for the better.
