Olivia Burnette, News Editor
Hi, Cat Talk readers! My name is Olivia Burnette, and I’m a senior here at Millbrook. I love reading, hiking, yoga, playing with my dog KJ, and getting snow cones with my friends. My favorite TV show is Parks and Rec, and my favorite book is Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi. I love Millbrook, and I have loved being involved. I am secretary of Senior Class Council, secretary of National Honor Society and Vice President of English Honor Society. I started a fundraiser last year with my friend my Meghan Canard from Sanderson that raised over $6,200 for Make-A-Wish Eastern North Carolina; I hope to raise that same amount of money this year for UNC Children’s Hospital. This past summer I got the privilege to serve as a US Senate Page in Washington DC. I got to work on the Senate floor during the Healthcare vote and meet all 100 senators–I even got to meet Joe Biden!! I go to Grace Community Church, and I spend a lot of time there playing in the youth band, volunteering in the daycare and Sunday School and attending youth group. Thank you for taking time to get to know me, and I cannot wait for you to see what Cat Talk has in store this year!
