Choosing Her Path

She made her senior project on Early Childhood Development at Little Jags Preschool. The sign is her own — "Behavioral Therapist for Kids." She knows what she wants to do, and she is pursuing that goal.

A Message from Lu

I know I'm not always the best at saying it, but I'm so grateful for the people in my life. Family, friends, the ones who've been there through every weird, hard, beautiful part of growing up — thank you. I love you. Here's to what's next.
