P: Name one of your passions in life:

L: One passion in my life is to be kind to everyone. We never know what someone is experiencing in their own life, so being kind can make all the difference in one person’s life. Being kind to people also makes me a happier person all around.

P: What are your plans for next year?

P: Name one thing you miss about being a kid:
