Sjoblom is an avid skier, plays the trombone and practices Tae Kwon Doe. She represented Soroco in the Colorado All-State Band in Greeley. The All-State Band is comprised of the top 200 high school musicians in the state.
Sjoblom plans to attend the University of Colorado Boulder to study astrophysics.
