About
Currently I am in my second semester at Westchester Community College. I have applied and plan on transferring to a SUNY school next semester, while attending the four year university I plan on majoring in elementary and special education while minoring in business. I am a very energetic, outgoing, caring, compassionate, loyal, honest, intelligent and loving individual. I am constantly helping those around me and advocating for those whom are oppressed. I have always been involved with my community from being a girl scout leader to teaching religious ed. I am always making those around me laugh and their laughter is what keeps me going.

Goals and interests
- Career goal
My ultimate goal is to become a special education teacher at a nonprofit organization for children with special needs, I as well plan to work with the peace corps in creating schools for children with special needs, as incredible as the peace corps is there is unfortunately no special school for children with disabilities. While majoring in elementary and special education I will minor in business, by minoring in business it will help me to have a better understanding on the technicalities behind opening/running an organization. After I complete my bachelor’s degree I will than go on to get my masters in childhood special education.
- Graduate school interests
I plan to get my masters in childhood special education.
