Her hobbies include dancing, hanging out with her family, and going out with friends. After high school, Amy plans to attend a university and major in marketing.

During her downtime, Brielle likes to journal, learn American Sign Language, design stickers, and binge her favorite K-dramas. Because of her eczema, Brielle established a deep personal connection to medicine at a very young age; she made frequent trips to the Children’s Hospital throughout her childhood, and the friendships she made with her doctors–in addition to her love for young kids–is what ultimately inspired Brielle to pursue a career in pediatrics. As she is VERY committed to earning the title “Dr. Mailed,” Brielle plans to kick-start her college career with a degree in neuroscience.
Janelle Márquez
Janelle is a very outgoing, easy-to-talk-to person, who loves to make people laugh and goof around. She is a hard working student with a 4.0 GPA, and she tries to help out her school in any way she can. Janelle is a well-known student, among her peers, for her ability to brighten up any room. She’s been involved in softball for all four years of her high school career and she loves it. She’s also involved in Ceramics Club, STAR Club, student council, and Best Buddies Club. She loves to assist and work hands-on with kids with special needs. She is an artistic gal, who loves to paint, draw and create things from clay. You can find some of her work in the GHS Art Gallery. She loves to play softball with her besties, Patty and Kacey. They have worked hard to improve their program and it has paid off. She also loves to play with the clothes in her closet, because she feels like the real-life Hannah Montana. She has two options for her plans after high school. One option is going to a UC, where she will study psychology or criminal justice. Her other option is going to community college, where she will continue her softball career. She wants to study criminal justice in hopes of contributing to change in the criminal justice system. Her reason for studying psychology is that she has never felt understood, so this is her chance to understand herself better.
Sebastien Mirzaian
Sebastien is the current ASB Director of Athletics and a member of his class council, and he has been on the GHS soccer team all four years of high school. He enjoys going out with friends, taking his girlfriend on dates, playing soccer, and working out. He wants to go into computer engineering, because he has been into computers his whole life.
Em Rodriguez
Em has always been a very extroverted person, so being involved is something of a capability. They were not much involved during their first two years of high school. However, she was active with her dancing. She performed in many of the dance shows that occurred during her freshman and sophomore years. They are also very “profound” in foreign language. As a sophomore, Em took AP Spanish Language, but sadly, due to covid, she did not do much. But she set a goal for her senior year to be as involved as they could. She is now in multiple clubs, including Ceramics Club, Best Buddies Club, and STAR Club. She has also joined her student council and has had lots of fun cooperating with planning school events and doing things for the Class of 2022. She is also very proud (and very thankful) to say that her artwork is showcased in the GHS Art Gallery. Em likes anything to do with the arts: drawing, painting, dancing, ceramics, sculpture, photography, creative writing, and a little bit of poetry. She also very much enjoys reading. Em will be attending Cal State LA in the fall and major in the art program. As of right now, she plans to pursue a career in the arts, but she is not quite sure what yet. Hopefully, as they go through college they will be able to figure that out. Being involved in the arts is truly the only thing they want to do.
