Ms. Walsh was always a top contender in NJ for HI during the 3 years i competed, and I bet she still was in the one year I wasn't present. I always strived to try and reach her level. I never did, but was lucky enough to stand on the stage to receive an award alongside her once in a while. It doesn't surprise me all that much to see her make it to finals in Storytelling. An overall amazing person who I am lucky to have gotten to know and to see as a high bar to strive for in performance.
