PAGE 13 CANDIDATE BIOGRAPHIES: SECRETARY Aayush Agrawal, Brookfield East What do you do outside of Latin and school? Outside of Latin and school, I enjoy playing tennis and competing in USTA tournaments across Wisconsin. In addition to school activities, I am one of the captains for S.M.A.R.T. team in which we study a biological protein and create a poster about its function and impact on our world today. I also enjoy spending time with my friends, watching all types of movies (besides Star Wars), and enjoying the warm Wisconsin weather: What position are you running for? Why did you choose to run for it? I am running for WJCL Secretary because I want to play a role in providing a fun and friendly environment for every delegate to enjoy, just like I experienced when I attended last year’s convention. Why are you the best candidate for your chosen position? I believe I am the best candidate for Secretary because I take quick notes and I am very organized. I have the experience by being on my school’s Latin Club Board this year, and I have taken minutes on long discussions for S.M.A.R.T. team. Most importantly, I have a passion for Latin and I love how fun JCL is. If elected, what changes would you implement? What would you keep the same? The current Secretary, Sabrina, has done a great job and I really like how she adds humor and color coding to her minutes. I would like to continue incorporating humor and colors to make the minutes fun and entertaining to read. In addition, I would like to share minutes within 24 hours after the board meeting to keep those who couldn’t attend up to date. However, I don’t want to just take minutes, I also want to add a group photo of everybody who attended the meeting to build camaraderie and memories. You’ve been sent home at your parents’ expense. What did you do? I slept on my SpongeBob pillow. What was your favorite album of 2017? My favorite album of 2017 was Everybody by Logic. He is very inspirational and sends a good message about how everyone should love one another, be empathetic, and not care about what other people think of you. Which Greek or Roman god are you and why? I am Hermes, the son of Zeus and Maia, because I am responsible for sending information and messages from one place to another in many of the clubs I partake in. Also, I like traveling around the world and experiencing new cultures, just like Hermes flying all over the world. And yes, just like Hermes I could be mischievous sometimes. Watch out. Anything else you’d like to share? Go Vote for Aayush because...dang it. Why can’t anything rhyme with my name?!?! This is not fair.
