I’ve learned about Helen’s biographical information. Also, I’ve learned about why Helen is an upstander based on her life experiences. Last, I learned about three awesome pillars of character in her life.

Tracy Salvato

The whole essay is going to be about my mother named Tracy Salvato, and my interview with her. This essay will be about Tracy’s biographical information, why Tracy is an upstander, who inspires Tracy and why and how Tracy shows three pillars of character.

Tracy has a job, she is a traveler, she always takes care of her children. She was born on July 24, 1966 on Cambridge, Massachusetts. She is female, hearing, and 34 years old. She met President Ronald Regan in the 1980's and she was excited to see him.

Throughout her life, Tracy has been an upstander. She moved out and lived by herself at age 21. She went to Somerville High School in Somerville, Massachusetts. She loved her high school years because she could always hang out with friends and get the best education. Since she was younger, she still loves to hang out with friends on weekends. She goes clubbing, out eat, and more with friends for enjoyment.

Who inspires Tracy? Tracy says Justin Salvato inspires her because he can do things for her when she asks him. Tracy’s mother inspires her too because she raised her to have good morals, she was always there for her, and she supported her.

Tracy shows three pillars of characters: Caring, Respect, and Responsibility. Tracy always cares about her children and family because she loves them no matter what. She always respects people and what they do, whether they are Gay or Lesbian. She even respects them when they are not mature. She also is responsible for keeping an eye on the children and being aware of what’s going on with her children.

I’ve learned about my mother’s biographical information, why she is an upstander, three Pillars of Character, and who inspires her. One thing she surprised me is that when my mother said, "Justin Salvato inspires me because he does things for me when I asked him if he doesn’t mind." That made me feel happy.
