Today's Senior Spotlight shines on Miss. Alyssa who will be graduating from Mount Pleasant High School in Mount Pleasant, Iowa!

Alyssa is another member of the MGP Class of 2020 Senior Model team and it has been so incredible to have her be a part of it all!  It has been a lot fun to watch her take part in all of the different shoots and to see her personality come through!  Alyssa is a little reserved and shy at first, but when she gets comfortable she is a lot of fun to be around!

 

Alyssa has been a lot of fun to spend time with during photo shoots; she is quick with the sarcasm and she goes along with all of my crazy ideas and pretends she doesn't think they are crazy!  :)

We've had quite a few different photo shoots together and I think my favorite one with her was probably her individual senior session.  Traipsing through the mud to get to a Missouri Crossing always sounds good in theory, until you have to do it.  And then the current is a little strong and almost takes you out.  But those are memories, right, Alyssa?

She's a beast in the discus ring and I am incredibly bummed for her to miss out on her senior track season.  But this girl still has big things coming!

 Alyssa did fill out her questionnaire pre-pandemic and some of her answers reflect that.

 

Alyssa's Spotlight: 

 

Me: What are your major accomplishments your senior year? What are you most proud of?

Alyssa: "This year I am proud of myself for trying new things. I auditioned for a school play and got a part. I have also been broadening my horizons and learning more about my community as I volunteer at the Henry County Heritage Trust Museum every week."

 

Me: I know the year isn't quite over just yet; do you have any big plans to finish out the year? Is there something you are looking forward to before graduation?

Alyssa: "I am looking forward to competing in the 2020 track and softball seasons. I have also gotten a part in the upcoming school musical. During my high school years I have learned that I love performing. I can’t wait to portray my character on stage!"

 

Me: Were you involved in any sports or extra curricular activities? If yes, please list them below.

Alyssa: "Yes, this year I participated in school activities such as a football manager, fall play, spring musical, show choir, track, and softball. I have also spent time this year volunteering at the local museum."

 

Me: What's your plan for this summer?

Alyssa: "This summer I plan to take a trip to Washington D.C and New York City with the music department from my high school. I plan to finish  my high school career by playing softball. I also want to spend my summer with my family and friends before I start my life’s new adventures."

 

Me: What does the future have in store for you? Have you already picked your school? If so, what major? (Or explain whatever future plans you have below).

Alyssa: "I plan to attend Hawkeye Community College to participate in their track program and begin my educational path to become an elementary teacher."

 

Me: What are your absolute favorite images/sets from your senior session?

Alyssa: "My two favorite sets from my senior session were the pictures that were taken behind What Cheer tavern and the images that were taken at my great great grandparents farm. I loved the rustic backdrop of both sites and including a piece of my family's history at the farm."

 

And now let's look back at the last year..
