“My parents have lived in two different countries since I was 3. It’s weird and upsetting because my mom kind of has to do everything by herself when we are in St. Louis, and it is hard on their marriage and our family's relationship. But if anybody were to make it work it would be my parents. I also don’t get to spend much alone time with my dad, and I have to work multiple jobs here in St. Louis to help financially and be able to get my own car.”

“All-Suburban [choir] was really fun because I got to work with a lot of people from other schools that I didn't know and I got to make friends. We got to learn fun but challenging music and perform for my parents so that was really fun. But the audition process was really stressful, because over 600 people auditioned but only around 150 actually made it into the choir so that was really intimidating for me. I was one out of three girls in my class who made it so that made me feel really special and I was really grateful to have this opportunity.”
