Hi! My name is Cole, and I’m an 18-year old senior at ACE. Outside of contributing to the school’s newsletter, I enjoy making music, nature, and all things pretty. If I can’t get on reality tv some day, I plan on being a veterinarian or a plastic surgeon. Actually, why can’t I just do all of those at once? I love to laugh and make new friends, and I spend most of the time driving around in my car (her name’s Charlie!!). I hope we can be friends, too. :)
