Yesterday I had the wonderful opportunity of attending groundbreaking ceremonies at both Deerfield High School as well as Highland Park High School.

Two of my summer interns, Danny Goldberg and Lily Zacharias (pictured left), helped me break ground for these projects.

Danny Goldberg is an incoming senior at Deerfield High School and is interested in international relations as well as political science. Danny is currently one of the varsity hockey captains, lacrosse captains, student council representative, physical education leader and the news editor of the school newspaper. He hopes to one day have a career in either law or politics.

Lily Zacharias, incoming senior at Deerfield High School, is interested in political science and international relations. She is currently on the leadership team of the Deerfield High School Model United Nations team and is the president of the Deerfield High School Straight and Gay Alliance. Lily hopes to one day pursue a career involving political or international diplomacy.
