Kristen Rysavy, Writer
I was born and raised in Owatonna, Minnesota. In elementary, I grew up learning in a private school until I was in eighth grade. I’m a senior this year and I look forward to the day I go off on my own. I’m very close in my faith; this influenced me to take up a lot of service projects. I’m very social. I love being around, interacting, and helping people. Another big part of my life is sports. I play summer soccer, I help my dad coach my little sister’s team, and I run cross country. Writing is also very important to me- it has changed my life and shaped the person I am today. I love writing fictional stories and being able to share them with people. I published my first book last year, and it was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. Yaaasss!
