STUDENT SPOTLIGHT

Erika Decosse, WHS Class of 2010

Activities & Involvement @ WHS):
Symphonic Band, Marching Band

Current Position:
Cryptologic Linguist (Urdu –official language of Pakistan) in the United States Air Force

How has the US Air Force helped you with your career search and goals?
It's helped me by giving me the opportunity to meet people from all over the world and travel to great places. It's helping me to learn more about myself as a person too.

Looking back at your senior year at WHS, did you know what you wanted to do after high school?
Absolutely not. I thought it was unfair to have to decide what I wanted my major to be because as a senior, you're so young and want to live life in the moment than plan the outlook of the rest of your life.

What advice do you have for WHS students who are not sure of their future plans?
Look into all of your options because there will always be something out there that might be better for you.
