About
I just finished school at Roane State Community College. I received many awards there while as a student athlete. I graduated with a 4.0 with my AS in pre-nursing. I work part-time at Gardendale First Baptist Church and also at Children's of Alabama. I will be attending the University of Alabama in the fall and plan on becoming very active on campus. I also plan on finding another church in Tuscaloosa and working in the nursery. While at Roane State, I was involved in the Baptist Christian Ministry, Phi Theta Kappa, Honors Society, the National Society of Leadership and Success, was the softball manager, and worked as a sports marketer.
