Q: WHAT HAS BEEN YOUR FAVORITE PART OF BEING A STUDENT AT EBHS?

A: My favorite part of being an EBHS student is the unique ability that my school gives to define myself and express myself. There is a shocking diversity of clubs, organizations, and foundations located in and around our school alone, most of them student created and student run. There is almost always a club or honors society that allows a student to express their passions in almost every category from E-sports to Animation. In the end, even if you DO find a passion that isn’t already expressed, then the school provides all the tools necessary to create such an organization. No school is as student focused as EBHS and that, I believe, is unique to our school district.

Q: WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS AFTER GRADUATION?

A: After Graduation I plan to attend a scholarly college in pursuit of a dual degree, one in the Arts – most likely a degree in film, and One in the practical sciences – most likely civil engineering or urban planning. Regardless, I seek to influence the world and the people around me in one way or another. I intend to spread the good cause of organizations such as FreshFilms which provide young filmmakers, like myself, with the technology and resources in order to create professional films. I also intend to finish and publish my literary works such as “Sol Aeternus” and “Her War” as well as working on smaller films and shorts such as ”E” and ”Masques”. During and after college I intend to work on popularizing the works of other obscure authors and creators such as myself.
