My personal goal is to become a database administrator. This goal originates from my love of program coding and the experience involving databases in my database fundamentals class. I would hope to achieve this goal in five to six years. I have talked to the current Director of Technology Services for Botetourt County about my goal. I told him what career I was pursuing and asked what steps I should take to achieve this goal. He gave me many ideas regarding certifications and colleges I could attend to be successful in the computer science field. I plan on attending Roanoke College in the fall of 2020 to help me achieve this job path.

I would like to work as an intern in computer science. This would enable me to gain experience in this field. I look forward to joining clubs to learn more about my classmates.

First and foremost, I love working with young children and being a proper role model for them. I have just completed my final year as a 4-H Teen Counselor for Botetourt County. In this position, I had the opportunity to teach youths a variety of learning experiences over a one-week period each year during the summer. In the role of counselor, I was also responsible for taking care of the youths whenever they were not in classes, whether that was in the lodge at night or outside during the day. I was a counselor for five years before I reached the maximum age limit. I enjoy swimming and learning about Marine Biology.
