Goals and interests

Career goal

I intend to study backstage theater on many levels, including stage managing, light/audio design/operation, and many more. With these skills and connections I've already developed through my high school career, I hope to find a job soon after completing college.

Outside the classroom

In mu free time, I tend to make creative writing pieces using my wild and creative imagination. I also draw from time to time, but that depends on my mood. I listen to music as a stress reliever and coping mechanism, and is often times to spark to my creative flame. Other hobbies that I have are volunteering, babysitting, and watching new television shows.
