She works for Mountain View Orthodontic lab, molding and building retainers. She loves working with her boss; everyday she gets “greeted by 2 wagging tails” Kristofferson said. She is most passionate about animals. After high school she plans to go to Washington State University on their Pullman campus and major in their Veterinarian Program. She chose Washington State University because they have the best program in the state! She hopes to further her education and get her full veterinary degree, work at a clinic, and help save and keep animals healthy. Her love for animals doesn't just stay in the education and work space. Kristofferson has many animals at home as well; throughout her life she's had fish, hamsters, rats, etc. she loves how they all have “their own little personality” Kristofferson said. She currently has a hamster named Poppy, a blue heeler named Sydney, and two cats named Charlotte and Olivia. She’s excited to start the year with a bang and produce many articles for the Valhalla!

The trash and recycle set up, which is placed in the cafeteria of the high school. The importance of recycling was and is increasing and so is the need to respect the environment and take care of the place we live in just using the right bin.“Recycling is important. I think that today we aren’t as educated as we should be at this point. We know the basics but typically when we are faced with a recycling bin or garbage can we just choose the garbage instead of trying to figure out what goes and where. It’s important to not actually treat the place we live in like trash,” senior Alexia Lachapelle said.
