Influential People

Bertram Reed Timoner. He goes by Reed, but more often than not I call him Bert.

Reed is one of the friendliest individuals I have ever met, and I’ve never heard anybody speak negatively about him. He loves and cares for his friends and family very much which is why in his portrait he has the hands of his friends on his shoulders.

Next year Reed is going to William and Mary where he’s going to study government, economics, and chemistry. His dream job is to be a Supreme Court Justice and he idolizes Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Obviously he’s a pretty smart dude, but he’s also very in-touch with his emotions. Reed’s concentration was a series of self-portraits and quotes that describe himself and his emotions.

He always has your back, he’s encouraging, and he brings out the best in everyone. That is why Bert is awesome.
