Who's Who at Her Honor: Team Urritia/Martinez x 2!

Who's Who at Her Honor: Team McFarlane/Valdes

As she entered high school, Crystal McFarlane began to noticed that her interests differed from many of her peers. “My interest in technology grew more than tinkering with my home computer,” she writes. However, as her passion deepened, she found herself alone in her excitement, “Nobody who was close to me shared this passion or even understood it.”
