What is your favorite Clover Garden memory?

I can’t narrow it down to one but my favorite memories would include making state playoffs with the soccer team my senior year. Senior year when we played Southern Wake and I scored three goals and had two assists in that game and we beat them in overtime. I also enjoyed hanging out with my friends in Art and Spanish classes my freshman and sophomore years. I loved physical fitness class with Mr. Ward. Senior year our tennis team beat Triangle Math and Science when Aiden and I were playing doubles and we had to win it for us to move on in the conference and we beat them. All of the rides to away games with basketball, tennis and soccer teams are all great memories. I’ve loved watching my brother Brady play basketball at CGS and running into my little brother Max in the hallways.

If you had to choose one person from CGS that has really made a difference in your life who would that be?

Mr. Ward has had a big impact on me in my four years at CGS. He was my PE teacher freshman year and Physical Fitness teacher my last three years. He’s helped me to be a better person and encouraged me in my growth and walk with Christ. “Hey Mr. Ward, what are we doing in Physical Fitness today!!??”

If you had to choose two people from outside CGS that have made a difference in your life who would they be?

My mom and dad prayed that I would get into CGS my freshman year along with my little brothers Brady and Max. That decision alone has definitely made me into the person I am today. I’m extremely lucky to have them as my parents because they made the right decisions for my life that has now all led up to graduation. One thing I will never forget is every school morning when I’m pulling out of the drive way my mom and dad would always stand out on the front porch to wave goodbye to me, Max, and Brady. Thank you Mom and Dad for not trying to be my best friend but being parents that care, discipline, and help me live my life for Christ.

What is your plan for after graduation?

I plan on attending community college for two years and I’m praying about what happens after that.
