Allison Negahnquet is a freshman Nursing student at Texas Women’s University, studying to become a Nurse Practitioner. Allison grew up in Okinawa, Japan, and in high school she was part of the Kubasaki Show Choir, and performed with her fellow choir members in countless concerts, fairs, and formal events. Along with choir she also was an active member of the Kubasaki Drama Department. She performed as a main character in two school plays and participated in skits at the local elementary school.

Drama has taught Allison how to be more outgoing, how to interact with people better, and how to work in teams. She is also a lot more comfortable in front of a crowd of people than she was before. Allison’s parents both worked full time while completing their degrees. “Their example made me understand how important a college education is in life.” In her free time, Allison loves reading and doing crafts. Her most recent craft project was a quilt.
