A dynamic high school music program encouraged singer and musician Tanya Smith to continue her education in music and to pursue her ambition to be a professional vocalist. Bitten by the drama bug early on in high school, Neil Minor conveys confidence and enthusiasm, gained through drama, both on stage and off as he prepares for a career in acting. Raquel Madahbee finds relaxation and self-expression through her evocative artwork, which includes elements of story-telling, fantasy, and fashion design.
