Emily Garcia is a 16-year-old junior at Hoover High School and has been in yearbook for two years.

Music, fashion, and films are things that Emily enjoys the most. She enjoys listening to music daily and is always open to new genres or music suggestions. Her current favorite artists are Clairo, The Cranberries, and Fleetwood Mac. Her favorite song is “Hella Good” by No Doubt. In Emily’s free time, she enjoys shopping with her mom and loves to express herself by wearing different styles of clothing. She loves to watch all kinds of films especially the fantasy and romance genres. Her favorite movie is How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days and she also likes to collect dvds of her all-time favorite movies.

Emily’s top favorite food is pepperoni pizza and her favorite drink is Coca Cola. She says the food that she dislikes the most is sushi because she does not like any sort of sea food.

Some of her future goals are to walk the stage at graduation and get her graduation diploma. She plans to attend SDSU or a community college and later on transfer to a four year. She hopes that she will be able to get a major in education so that she can become an elementary teacher and make a difference in kids’ lives. Her role models in life are her mom and cousin. Emily’s cousin has become an inspiration to her and one of the reasons why she wants to become a teacher. She hopes that she will make her whole family proud and be the first one in her family to attend college.

Emily thinks she can change the world by bringing awareness to climate change and bringing a stop to it and also stopping conflicts with other countries. She says if society were empathetic towards one another and treated each other with kindness and respect then the world may become a better place.
