Hi, my name is Callie Cerruti. I play ice hockey at Providence College, and I live in Norwell, Massachusetts. A teacher in high school that inspired me is Miss Dolan. She was pretty young, so she was very relatable and close to our age, and she just gave us a lot of life lessons, and it was super cool to see and be able to talk with someone so freely, and you kind of got to build a relationship where they weren't just your teacher, but they were also your friend. One piece of advice that she would always talk about is just being yourself, and it's okay to not always know where you're going, but to just keep believing in yourself and keep pushing onward.
