Ashlyn Hack, Staff Writer
Ashlyn is a student who came here from six different states until her family landed here in Alliance Nebraska. When she got here she was in 11th grade and now she is a senior in Alliance High School. She will be graduating in the year 2024. Her dreams after graduation are to go to Chadron State College and to become a school psychologist. The reason for her going to this college is because of how close to home it is plus it has a trio program and this trio program allows her to reach out to businesses and help her learn more about becoming a school psychologist. Her inspiration is her own mother, for these goals she is heading for in her further education. She wants to become a school psychologist because one, in her younger years, helped her through some hard times so she wants to pass down kindness and help others. The Upward Bound Club helped her be allowed to feel her fellow club members becoming family and then her car rides helped her relieve her stress of the day by listening to her favorite music at its loudest while going down country side roads and the brick/pavement of the roads in Alliance. One more thing is that she is a very animal loving person and has four dogs and one cat. Ashlyn’s favorite type of food is a chocolate cashew because it’s two of her favorite snacks in one. One of the many things that is unexpected in her new year as a senior is joining the Spud. She can’t wait to write fascinating stories for the SPUD this year. Since she was able to join the SPUD she has been able to spread her passion of writing and pursuing stories.
