Sky Holbrook has gotten support from a lot of people in his life, and his mother has always been his role model.

Sky Holbrook is in her first year of Fanshawe's Horticulture Technician program. She described herself very simply: "I am me. There really isn't anything more to it."

1. Why are you here?
I accepted my offer to Fanshawe because my horticulture teacher in high school was so adamant about me attending Fanshawe.

2. What was your life-changing moment?
The moment my life was completely altered was when I received a letter from a teacher reassuring me of who I was and how successful I would be in the future.

3. What music are you currently listening to?
I've recently found myself listening to a variety of new bands. I'm always looking for the next best, greatest band.

4. What is the best piece of advice you've ever received?
Any advice my grandmother has ever given me, because no matter what has ever happened, she has always tried viewing the situation from every perspective before offering an advice.

5. Who is your role model?
Hands-down my role model has always been my mother, because no matter how hard things got, she always made sure we had everything we needed and that we were happy.

6. Where in the world have you travelled?
I've never cared for going too far from home, but I have spent some time in Florida and Chicago.

7. What was your first job?
The first job I had was working with my neighbour pouring driveways.

8. What would your last meal be?
My last meal would have to be chicken alfredo.

9. What makes you uneasy?
In all honesty, the thing that makes me uneasy is being away from home. I don't mind being away, but it definitely gets hard sometimes.

10. What is your passion?
My passion is horticulture. I enjoy working outside, as well as the classes because of the science and art involved.
