Self Introduction (Anne)

 I am Anne Burkemper, 16 years old, a junior at Ursuline Academy in Kirkwood.

I play tennis for my school in the fall, I was just inducted into NHS, and I am an ambassador for my school.

My hobbies include writing, listening to music, and crocheting.

I started my first job this past summer at Innsbrook as a recreational aide.

I am so excited to be a part of this class, and it is my first class with Mark!

    I'm excited to take this class with you! You are a great role model for me - as a writer and as a kind person.

    As an elder person, I enjoy being amid the vivacity and curiosity of the young!

    I hope we can provide an additional space for your creative explorations, which may influence your academic pursuits at Ursuline.

    Let us know some of your favorite music to listen to.

    I was in NHS and an ambassador at Incarnate Word Academy! The Anne(s) have so much in common! Though my name on my birth certificate is Ann with no e. ;)
