Hi, I’m Jazzy Najafizadeh!

I will be a senior next year and I love LVS! In my spare time I enjoy drawing, hiking, traveling, reading, and snorkeling. I’ve been a Student Council member for two years, I was the Sophomore class representative last year, and I’m currently the Secretary of NHS. As Vice-President, I would love the opportunity to head events, generate creative ideas, and work with others.

Vote for me because I’m hard-working, fun, and I will make this year the best one yet!

Stay safe and healthy! :) Get Jazzed Up
