Annika is from Shakopee, MN but lives in the Cotter residents hall and this is her first year at Cotter High School. She is an only child and lives just with her dad after her mom passed away from cancer. She enjoys hanging out with friends from the dorms and from school. She enjoys Theater, fencing, and reading in her free time. Annika hopes to do the Musical this year for Cotter. She’s been doing musicals and plays since middle school. In her spare time in the dorms, she’ll catch up on some reading or watch “Modern Family” with her friends Lucy and Cam. She also enjoys the trips the dorms do on the weekends, because it helps her branch out a little bit more as well as going to new places. Her hopes for this school year is for her to be herself and do the best she can as well as making new friends.
