Chosen for this week’s Senior Spotlight is Cierrah Jackson. Cierrah’s plans after high school are to attend a university, study Radiology, and work to become an Ultrasound Technician. In her free time, she loves to go shopping. A fun fact about Cierrah is that she has a huge family here in Brooklyn, but most of her family lives in Puerto Rico.
Q: If you could give your past self one piece of advice going forward, what would it be?
A: “Remember that life goes on. I would always dwell on things and think they mattered forever, which they do not. Everything happens for a reason. I honestly cannot be mad if it was God’s plan.”
Q: Using only three words, how would someone describe you?
A: “Organized, Friendly, Compassionate.”
Q: What is your main focus this year?
A: “I want to be able to enjoy every moment. Everything goes by so fast, and in a year from now, high school will be over for me. Also, enjoy the now because life is short.”
Q: What has been your biggest accomplishment at BHS?
A: “Getting inducted into the National Spanish Honor Society.”
Q: Are you a morning person or a night owl?
A: “I do not necessarily like waking up early. If it is something I must do, then I do not mind. I am not a night person either because I fall asleep whenever I am out too late.”
Q: What is your favorite movie?
A: “My favorite movie is The Age of Adaline. I love Blake Lively, but also, the storyline and message is amazing.”
Q: What is your favorite memory as a cheerleader?
A: “The game-winning basket at Trinity. During my junior year, it was basketball season at Trinity, and we were down by a point, but our team hit the game-winner.”
Q: Who has been your biggest inspiration throughout high school?
A: “My mom. I go to her for almost everything. She has worked very hard to give my sisters and me the lives we have. I would not know what to do without her; she is my biggest inspiration.”
Thank you for your time, Cierrah. Enjoy your senior year by living in the now. And know this, your future is bright!
