One example of his exceptional contributions is a video called “Run this Town.” The video was filmed over the summer and took a month to film and edit.

Nominator: Cynthia Guerrero, Life Skills teacher
“It’s difficult to realize how much life has changed since that school year. We all had to work out of our comfort zones while experiencing such dramatic life changes. I will never forget the last day of each semester having the entire class turn on their screens so I could see everyone’s faces. My tears were genuine…I never knew how much I missed teaching students in person!” Guerrero said. “It’s been fun seeing you in various places of the building…I might not have recognized your face, but I definitely remembered you when hearing your name! Wishing you many blessings as you make a new journey after graduation. Live life without regrets and treasure the moments!”
