Ananda Wilkinson ’25

If you had to create a synonym for the word Smithie, what would it be?
It would be sophisticated because Smithies carry a lot of knowledge and they use it to help guide others who come after them.

When you were a child, what was your biggest dream?
My biggest dream was to be successful, I wanted to be able to live a life where I have no regrets.

Would you rather be able to run at 100 miles per hour or fly at 10 miles per hour?
I would like to run at 100 miles per hour because I want to reach places quicker and the adrenaline rush is fun to experience. 

When was the last time you did something for the first time?
In May, I went to Atlanta and went go-karting for the first time. 

What would you do if you have all the money in the world?
I would buy a house for my parents and myself, even a car. Then I would save half of the money and the rest I would like to donate to Black families.
