Episode 48: Shining star inspires other students

Dave Moore speaks with Riya Singh on the podcast. She is a senior at Pueblo West High School with a bright future. She is involved with the debate team, Future Business Leaders of America, and Youth in Government. Youth and Government is where students take part in a mock government and congress and discuss potential bills and pass laws.   

She is also planning a trip to Washington, D.C. to meet the President & other government officials to see the innerworkings of our government even more.   

Next Year, she plans to attend Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island to double major in Political Science and  Women's Gender & Sexuality Studies.   

Her motivation has set her up for a bright future, she says her drive comes from people turning up their nose when she tells them she is from Pueblo. Now she strives to show others parts of the state Pueblo people can be successful and encourage other students they can do that same.
