Senior Rep, Jake Stewart

Everyone, this is Jake.

Jake, the Internet.

I first met Jake in May when I was volunteering at The Overnighter -- an incredible two-day event for elementary students put on by an organization of parents. Although, I wouldn't say I technically "met" Jake then......every time I went to introduce myself, he vanished.

And I totally know why.

Jake has an amazing gift of working with kids. They suck to him like opposite magnets. Like pantyhose and skirts on a winter day (Sorry, Jake). They idolize him and breathe his energy like helium from a balloon. He's the type of high-schooler that you WANT your kids to emulate.

When Jake isn't fratinizing with the 5th graders, he's playing baseball and football for Covington High School. And collecting shoes.

Yes, that's what I said. Shoes. And not just some run-of-the-mill-every-day shoes. But Jordans. Of every single color. You'll see.

And not only does he have a lengthy shoe collection that would make most of my girlfriends jealous, but he has a smile that is absolutely infectious. Just looking at him smiling makes me smile. Even when I'm already smiling.


Jake, I hope you enjoy your senior year!! Best of luck to you and all you set out to accomplish! You have a bright future adhead of you (bring those shades)!

All my best,
e
