Ili Benavides was born August 17, 2009 in Indiana and is a sixteen-year-old junior at Fleetwood Area High School.  She has been to four  schools in total since entering the education system. She is Catholic, an introvert, and a hard worker whose favorite subject is history and considers herself to be a night owl. She loves her horse and wants to be a veterinary technician when she grows up. She also enjoys traveling and has been to Mexico, Florida, Indiana, and South Carolina. Her favorite vacation of all time though was her trip to Myrtle Beach. If she had to go to one place in particular, however, she would want to go to Japan for the atmosphere and culture of Tokyo. She tends to like to stay in her comfort zone and appreciate what she loves the most in life; the people around her are what motivate her to continue forward. To Benavidas, family are those who are close to her and are always supportive. Halloween is her favorite holiday, and this goes with her favorite season, fall. While she loves her school and teachers, she despises getting up in the morning for it though. Her favorite movie is “The Visit,” and she enjoys other entertainment like TikTok, music, and Youtube videos.
