letters of recommendation
Advisor Amanda Thrun...
...has been my journalism teacher for three years. She's not only the teacher who has known me the longest, she's the one I've worked with the closest. I feel her genuine devotion to making me better every day. She pushes me to my limits, and she literally taught me everything I know.
Senior Zach Kennett...
...is the web editor of the Tiger Times Online, the second-in-command. We've worked closely together for nearly two years, as he and I are the only two returning students in AJC this year. I spend every morning next to Zach. I share every idea with him. He's seen my skills develop more closely than anyone else. Zach has edited every piece I've written for the last two years with excellent constructive criticism. He's also the co-editor-in-chief of the yearbook and a wonderful writer with astonishing wit.
Senior Veda Kommineni...
...might just be president someday. I'm fangirling that she agreed to write this letter for me because she's probably the peer I admire most. With Zach, she's the co-editor-in-chief of the yearbook. She's also a Coke Scholar, an activist, a brilliant writer, an even more outstanding designer and a member of my ethics bowl team. Veda took AJC last year with me and helped me improve my work with insightful critiques.
