About

I began taking classes at TWU during my junior year of high school. I enjoy trying my absolute best and always striving to be better and more efficient. I was homeschooled my whole life and this enabled me to develop into the strong, hardworking individual I am today. I love showing my strong work ethic through my grades.

Goals and interests

Career goal

I've always been interested in medicine. When I was younger I was set on becoming a neurosurgeon as this job seemed most respectable, but as I grew older I became increasingly interested in natural medicine. Now I want to be either a Naturopath or a Holistic Health Practitioner. I feel that these jobs would give me the ability to provide safe, natural and affordable healthcare to my community.
