My name is Nadya Hooton. I am a senior at MHS, and I aspire to be a teacher. I believe that storytelling is important because it allows us to communicate experiences and connect with one another on a deeper level than just a conversation. I value honesty, respect, and kindness. I enjoy reading different stories because it transports me into the world of the storyteller. Something interesting about me is that I am a citizen in both the U.S and Russia.
