As a young adult, doing what makes you happy is the ultimate life goal. We spend day in and day out dreaming of what can make life reminiscent to what we envision life. As an artist myself I understand the passion and fire it takes to fulfill a dream from a young age as Christian Aycock is currently doing. Christian Aycock, a seventeen-year-old musician is a true reflection of chasing your dreams from a young age. After numerous unsuccessful meetings on my part, I finally was able to sit down with Christian and discuss the components which make up his artistic and academic self.
What makes Christian so phenomenal is the multifaceted attributes of his life. A chorus singer from Drew Charter School to a Kroger courtesy clerk, advancing toward his dreams. All while being a part of a nine-sibling family, we can only imagine the beautiful chaos of his family. Being one of nine builds character, Christian described some of those character traits as determined, productive and helpful. All attributes that will assist him along his academic journey. Christian Aycock’s academic journey began as a typical K-12 experience. Commencing at Hope Hill Elementary and now Drew Charter School. Christian has dreams of continuing his secondary education at esteemed colleges such as Morehouse, Clark Atlanta and Georgia State University. In order to facilitate this goal Christian made good grades and became a dual enrollment student, which is how I met this wonderful soul. As a dual enrollment student, Aycock hopes to gain some college experience to aid in the transition from high school senior to college freshman. Aspiring to live out his dreams as a music conductor and music composer. While diligently participating in academic pursuits.
