Wildcat Alumni Spotlight
Annie Hall was part of the Class of 2011, ultimately graduating from NCSSM. She graduated from NC State in 2015 with a degree in textiles. Annie Hall just started her Peace Corps placement in Ecuador. In recent facebook posts she stated, "I'm now giving back to promote education around the world" and "Amo mi vida. (I love my life.) Peace Corps is the best decision I have ever made."
We only had the pleasure of having Annie at RHS for two years, because she had already grown beyond us. However, Annie left an indelible mark on her teachers and the organizations she was involved in during her short tenure at RHS. She will be an excellent ambassador of American culture and bring tremendous knowledge and skills to her post.
Check out her blog here: http://fromnctoecuador.blogspot.com/
