Violet Elaine Slifer was born on August 6, 2007 to Kimberly Davis and Cole Slifer. She has one older brother, Drake, and is a fraternal twin to Lili, though Violet proudly claims the title of being the older twin.

Violet looks up to her mom as her greatest inspiration, describing her as “my biggest supporter” and someone who sets an example through her hard work and dedication to family. That same determination shines through Violet’s own life, as she prioritizes her academics while also making time to spend with friends or enjoy a good book.

Some of Violet’s favorite memories from high school include cheering, attending 5th Quarter, and hanging out at the square on Friday nights. One memory she’ll never forget is traveling with Lili and Ella to TVL volleyball in Onaga her freshman year when they took a wrong turn and had to turn around on the highway.

After graduation, Violet plans to attend a two-year college to earn her dental assistant license, with the ultimate goal of becoming a dental hygienist. In the future, she hopes to build a successful career, start a family, and live a happy life near the Valley Heights area.

A fun fact about Violet is that her favorite color is lavender! When asked what advice she would give to younger students, Violet shared these words of wisdom, “You can always change who you want to be, never take anything for granted.”
