My best friend, college roommate, and constant encouragement. Life with Jade is always a party! She is both my shoulder to cry on and the person I laugh with most. I'm convinced if you put us in a room and left us alone we would stay talking for years and years.

A friendship I will never take for granted. Addison and I met freshman year of college and became instant friends. She is always willing to listen and give sound advice. It has been so fun to do life together.

My high school bestie. We met freshman year during track and soon became inseparable. She eventually moved states but the distance only grew our friendship stronger. Alli is the friend that we can pick up right where we left off after months of not seeing each other.

My vlogging buddy for life. Amy is truly a light in this dark world and her friendship has been such a blessing to me through both high school and college. She is always down to go on spontaneous adventures and loves to shop which speaks my language well.

The sister I always wanted. Chloe is an answered prayer. When we first met I was in shock of how much we had in common. It has been so fun to get to know her better over the years and I'm so excited to officially have a sister.

My best man. The guy I've been doing just about everything with for the last 8 years. From track, to show choir, to most of college. As he goes to law school I'll miss seeing him on a daily basis, but the times we get together will always be a blessing.

I've only known Haf for the last couple of years, but our friendship was spontaneous from the first time we met. Haf got me through my hardest year of college and provided some comedy relief as my roommate.

One of my oldest buddies. We haven't had the privilege of seeing each other often over the last couple of years but when we talk it's like he never left. Despite the long distance, he remains one of my closest friends.

One of my earliest friendships. Nathan and I grew up playing soccer together. In middle school and high school we ran cross country and track together. Through these sports, and countless hangouts outside of them, we formed a lifelong friendship.

Kaden and I played basketball together as kids and become good friends during high school. He never fails to make me laugh and anytime we get to hangout is always a good time. I look forward to being able to spend more time with him over the next few years.
