BRHSF: How did BRHS prepare you for college and/or your career?

MFH: I found that my study habits were more fine-tuned than my college peers, and my work ethic was strong both for college and career.

BRHSF: What activities were you involved in as a student at BRHS?

MFH: Swim team and Gymnastics team

BRHSF: What teachers or staff influenced you as a student at BRHS and how?

MFH: My coaches, Coach Newport and Coach Nee, were probably my biggest influences.  They provided me with confidence and a sense of worth in my awkward high school years.

BRHSF: What is a fun fact, embarrassing moment, or funny story about yourself from high school or now?

MFH: I left the headlights of my car on so many times during school that Coach Newport and Coach Nee presented me with a set of jumper cables during my senior year athletic ceremony.

BRHSF:  What advice would you give current students?

MFH: I know BRHS and the teachers seem really tough right now, but hang in there.  One day you will appreciate it.  I promise.
