#StudentFeature alert! Chrystal Sircely, a junior at Sto-Rox Junior-Senior High School, found herself on the stage again as a student ambassador for our recent Spirit of Enterprise Awards. In February of 2020, Chrystal had the opportunity to open our Inspiring Success Awards, making it her first public speaking experience. She was excited about the second chance to work on her public speaking, and as a student ambassador, she was able to interview the CEO of HarbisonWalker... International, Carol Jackson. One commonality she found during her interview with Carol is a shared passion for music. Chrystal is a percussionist in her high school’s concert, jazz, and marching band and is a part of the chorus. With future plans of becoming a music teacher, she says, "Carol has given me a lot to think about and I will definitely keep her advice in mind in the future."
