About
I recently graduated from Arizona Agribusiness and Equine Center, an early college high school. Taking many agriculture and equine related classes, I received my Equine Studies Certificate. During this time, I also attended Paradise Valley Community College through which I graduated with my Associates Degree at the same time I received my high school diploma. I am currently attending Grand Canyon University while majoring in Psychology as well as Biology with an Emphasis in Pre-Med. My goal after I graduate is to continue on to medical school and obtain a career in the health care industry. One of my passions in life is Arabian horses. Growing up I have always been around horses and for the 10 years I have been competitively showing and riding. On a national level I have earned numerous championships. Looking past all this, I am a very determined, hardworking, and loving person.

Goals and interests
- Career goal
After I graduate, I intend on becoming an anesthesiologist. My goal for this career is to work in a hospital setting in order to impact the community.
- Graduate school interests
Once I finish undergraduate school, I plan on attending medical school in order to obtain my PhD.
- Outside the classroom
Growing up, my grandparents had a ranch and always owned many horses. Naturally, I followed in their footsteps and now ride and show Arabian horses. This consists of practicing 3-4 times a week while competing on a local, regional, and national level. In my spare time, I enjoy going to the gym, reading, and hanging out with friends. I seek new adventures and challenges everyday.
