== Biography ==
=== Early Life ===
Aubri has always been a runner. She runs from her problems, responsibilities, and any potential threat, and has since the day she learned to run. Her parents have consistently encouraged her to try new things, and she has consistently hid in her room. She started dating Liam Cook in freshman year. They're deeply in love, at the start of the show, and nothing could ever change that... Could it?
=== Season 1 ===
==== Pilot ====
Aubri first appears rushing in late to the Glee Club auditions, with Liam. She makes clear that she is only there to support Liam whilst he auditions, not to sing. Liam happily runs to her after his successful audition, as she applauds him.
==== Edge ====
She continues to be there for Liam (without participating) when rehearsals begin. When Damien Russo puts his arm around a distressed Liam, Aubri keeps a close eye on them. After September Puckerman performs Corner of the Sky, Aubri encourages Liam to explain why he resisted against this choice of song. She insists that since he helped her understand his resistance to change, others will understand too, and she cheers him up with a joke. Later that day, when September and Liam talk things through in the club room, Aubri listens from the door, and September's words seem to encourage her as well as Liam.
When Damien chats to Liam alone after another rehearsal, complimenting him, Aubri notices and asks Liam what was going on.
The following day, Aubri asks Beth Corcoran if she can join in their rehearsal of Holiday. Beth places her next to Liam, and she knows exactly what to do from watching previous rehearsals. 
==== Coming Out of My Cage ====
Aubri struggles along with everyone else in Shawn Larson's Math class, and mainly jokes with Liam instead of paying attention.
She is immediately there to help Liam and threatens to kill the culprit when a slushy is thrown at him, though he doesn't want her help. She checks on him in rehearsals after they perform Totally Fucked, and notices that he's wearing Damien's hoodie. This causes Liam to affirm his love and affection for her (whilst Damien watches them). 
In the dream sequence of My Junk in the club room, Aubri is spinning Liam, whilst Damien does the same.
She also makes an appearance in the performance of Love Myself.
==== Popular ====
Aubri expresses her sympathy for Beth and her scheduling struggles, whilst Liam doesn't appear to be listening. She realises that he's watching Damien and checks on him. Liam snaps out of it and, feeling guilty, kisses her and asks for another heart on his arm. Catching a glimpse of Damien, she decides to draw multiple this time. She invites him over again and, when Damien approaches, makes sure to stand between them. She attempts to steer Liam away from the situation, to no avail.
In Music class, Aubri helps out Alfie Winstanley during his rant about music taste by pointing Cardi B's name.
When Liam is struggling to stay awake in Art class later, Aubri continually nudges him awake.
==== Invitationals ====
Aubri waits for Liam to show up when his Math homework supposedly held him back. She offers to come talk to Shawn about it with him but he brushes this off. She then sits him down and expresses her concern that he's barely been present, even mentally, for weeks. Liam apologises and assures her that things won't go on that way. They catch up for the first time in a while, and seem perfectlyhappy, until Liam gets distracted by Damien again and it appears harder for her to mask her worry. She sings Pretending. She then proposes a dinner date, which Liam agrees to to the following day instead. Abruptly they realise rehearsals are starting, and happily run there holding hands.
Whilst Liam and a few others help Quentin Talley with the last minute setlist, Aubri opts for extra track time instead.
Not long before Invitationals, when Jude Moody gives Liam a reassuring hug, Aubri (jokingly) claims she'll fight for him.
== Personality ==
Aubri is a shy, deeply insecure girl, but has a great sense of humour when you get to know her. She an observant straight-B student and a hopeless romantic, as evidenced by her relationship with Liam.
== Style/Appearance ==
Letterman jackets, vest tops, and sweatpants make up most of Aubri's wardrobe. In conversation with Viola James, before a performance, she claims to be allergic to makeup.
== Trivia ==
* In the first draft of the series, Aubri was a cousin of the late Finn Hudson.
*While Aubri's a mezzo, the vocal line she's put on tends to vary, depending on what's needed most, because there are so many mezzos.
