By Charli R. from Eureka Senior High School in California

“Music is the thing that I am most proudest of in my life, because i've stuck with it. My biggest accomplishment is probably music because it's something that has kept me going through covid. If I could change one thing in my lifetime, it would be something related to covid. The biggest impact in my life is probably my dad because he's always supporting me especially through everything this year.”
