Tayler Nickerson
Minnesota Virtual Academy
Career Field: Still Deciding
Grade: 10
Hobbies: Baking, reading, writing, researching/learning, riding horse, doing chores
I am still between two pathways: either journalism or crime scene investigating. Both interest me deeply, I love politics and writing so that is part of my obsession with journalism. I also love true crime, learning about forensic science and that is why I am also very intrigued by CSI.
Aleena Polanco
Minnesota Virtual Academy
Career Field: Business
Grade: 10
Hobbies: Outside of school my hobbies are, volunteering, writing poetry, and SkillsUSA.
I chose the Stride business pathway because I felt that the classes offered would be most applicable to what I could need in a variety of jobs. Another reason I made the decision to be a part of this pathway was because I love administrational work. Joining the workforce, I aspire to be someone who takes charge and handles organizational details. I truly believe that through my pathway, I am learning the skills to meet that aspiration.
