Mercy Gobana, Staff Reporter
Sophomore Mercy Gobana attended St. Therese Catholic School for middle school, and went on to go to La Salle to experience the many classes and extracurriculars it offers.
In her freshman year, she joined theater, where she participated in construction and backstage crew. She enjoys working behind the curtain in plays because building the set allows her to practice her artistic skills, while running crew provides an opportunity for her to hang out with her friends.
Aside from theater, Mercy enjoys spending her time drawing while listening to many different types of music, with some of her favorite artists being Tyler, the Creator, Kendrick Lamar, Ginger Root, Erykah Badu, and her favorite band, A Tribe Called Quest.
When not drawing, she likes watching her favorite YouTubers play horror games or react to horror analogs, along with a recently started hobby of working on jigsaw puzzles.
When it comes to traveling, a place Mercy would love to visit is Italy, as she would love to see the beautiful architecture and outstanding artwork in its cities.
Although drawing started off as a small hobby of hers, she wants to pursue a career in the art field while also improving her skills.
