Why did you decide to apply for BOTC

– BOTC sounded like a cool pre-COVID-19 schoolwide event and I wanted to get involved in its return. Representing our grade sounded like a lot of fun, and so far, it is!

What are you most excited about for BOTC?

– Definitely the lip sync. We have a great song list that is both fun to dance to and dub over, and the other grades also seem pretty hyped about it so it adds to the excitement.

What’s a fun fact about yourself that not a lot of people know?

– One fun fact is that I have never been outside of the U.S.

What is the key to winning BOTC

– Definitely commitment. If you do not put the required work into the events, then you can never expect to win. Building bonds with your teammates, putting thought into your song choices, and designing your costumes well all create a perfect winning environment.
