Amanda Wang

If you have seen a girl with a brilliant smile chilling at the Senior Spot, you have met Amanda. If you have ever spoken to her, you have experienced Amanda’s kind and gentle nature, as well as empathy for everyone around her. Amanda also carries a flame within her — she is a fierce advocate for social justice, diversity, and community by speaking out for her beliefs. One of her most impactful contributions to Webb is Empowering Student Voices Initiative (ESVI), a student group that discusses diversity at Webb, confronts stereotypes, and educates our community. During her time at Webb, Amanda has truly valued its close-knit community; one thing she will miss the most is her strong relationship with her advisor, Mrs. Lantz, since its supportive nature is “something unique to Webb.” Likewise, Amanda appreciates the strong bonds her class created during their senior year Theme Nights, a time that she believes the Class of 2020 was closest. Although she loves the time she spent at Webb, she is excited for the next chapter of her life. This fall, Amanda will attend Pitzer College where she plans to study Sociology, serving as a foundation for her future plans to do community work.
