In the classroom DeAnn carries a 4.13 GPA, is class vice president and has received offers for academic scholarships. She has a love for chemistry, biology, physics and math and has aspirations of going to medical school and into forensic science. In other words, she’s freaky smart and is on the right track for a successful career in the medical profession. Equally impressive is her athletic accomplishments.
