2013 Distinguished Young Woman |
Sponsored by: Sugar Plum Floral McKenzie is the daughter of Summer and Ron McDonald. She has one younger sister, Veronica. McKenzie plans to attend Stanford University and become a prosecuting attorney. She is involved in a variety of activities including ballet, basketball, volleyball, National Honor Society, Engaging Youth Serving Communities, and many others. Two historical figures that interest her most are Franklin Delano Roosevelt and Walt Disney, and her favorite musical group is ‘Nickelback.’ McKenzie has been attending ballet classes since she was two years old and she truly loves to perform. For her talent McKenzie will be sharing her love and passion for dancing by performing a lyrical dance to “I’ll Be” by Edwin McCain. She chose this piece because it really speaks to her and is one of her favorite songs. When asked what makes her most proud of her generation she states; “I am most proud of the way my generation sets and accomplishes goals as a team.” |
