"At home, my dad and I have a garden---a big garden. I grow tomatoes, cabbage, sometimes lettuce, sometimes bok choy. My dad puts the seeds in the ground. We water it. I help with the picking. We wash it. And I eat it. I help out a lot at home. I picks up limbs with my dad. I help my mom carry books upstairs because she is a teacher. Teachers have a lot of books. I take the dishes out of the dishwasher.
"I joined Company d in 2005. I like the jazz and choreography. I like doing musical theater. We do acting. We learn how to grow and build character. I am very honest."
