About
I am currently a student at Radford University of Radford, Virginia. The fall of 2015 was the start of my freshman year of college. I grew up in what what used to be a small town in Pennsylvania. Over the years, it grew and more expanded. I also grew up in a single-parent family with my younger sister. My mom has always taken care of me and she's the reason I am where I am today. I learned, from her, that education is an important way too better your future.

- Outside the classroom
I love to read anything that is not non-fiction. I can read an entire book in a day or two if I really enjoy it. I'm not sure when or why I found an intense interest in fictional stories, but I'm glad I did. Reading, to me, is like experiencing something that is so realistic that you can imagines yourself in the shoes of the characters. That is why I enjoy reading so much. I sometimes like to draw too, even though I'm not very good at it. My favorite TV show I Grey's Anatomy; I have watched every season and will continue to do so until they decide to stop making them.
