About
I am someone that is very outgoing and ambitious. I have always enjoyed learning and trying new things. I am a what someone will call a extroverted-introvert. I enjoy hanging with family and friends making new memories and experiences but I also enjoy solitude within myself to get realigned. I am very big on staying structured, having a balance my family would say. I am a young woman that has big dreams and plan on tackling each dream that I can as long as I continue to wake up each day. I have always took education being very important and valuable to me. I have pushed through many trials during my college career including sudden deaths, illness', and even having to support oneself independently working two jobs. I have never allowed anything to affect my studies. I will continue to carry the mindset of keeping my studies a top priority.
