JohnPaul (JP) Simental is a junior at Brea Olinda High School. He plays clarinet in the school’s marching band and wind ensemble, plays tenor saxophone in the school’s jazz band, and is trying to learn piano. He is on the Academic Decathlon team, has a black belt in tae kwon do, and enjoys playing music and video games, which have both inspired him greatly. He doesn’t know what he wants to do as an adult, but something in music, science, or computer science all sound like good options to him.
