What is a favorite High School moment(s): Breaking my nose before half time of the ND vs Wilson football game this year was a crazy time. Broke my nose right at the end of the second quarter.

What is a favorite moment(s) about your internship: My favorite experience during this internship was during the Parkland vs Notre Dame boys basketball game. This was special because it was the first time I was reporting on camera. I loved the experience of talking to the coaches and players. Watching myself on the You Tube video after the game was a cool experience to see.
