Anika Washburn '18
Anika Washburn '18 reflects on how Brookfield Academy shaped her character through lived experiences rooted in accountability, trust, and resilience. From athletics to performing arts, BA taught her to embrace discomfort, contribute in any role, and lead with authenticity rather than ego. These lessons carried through college, where she balanced rigorous academics and championship-level soccer, and into her professional life as a software engineer at Microsoft in Seattle. Whether leading teams, pursuing mountaineering, or committing to everyday disciplines, she credits BA with instilling a foundation of character that continues to guide her work, leadership, and growth.
