About

I graduated with High Honors and top 10% of my class at Pearl River Central High School in Carriere, Mississippi in 2010. While in high school, I was a member of the Blue Brigade Band for five years, Central Attraction Show Choir for two years, a Beta Club member for two years, and a National Honor Society member for one year. In 2012, I graduated from Pearl River Community College in Poplarville, Mississippi with an Associate's Degree in General Studies. While attending PRCC, I was in the RiverRoad Show Choir for two years, River Singers Choir for two years, as well as the Spirit of the River Marching Band and Symphonic band for two years. Currently, I attend the University of Southern Mississippi in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, and I am pursuing a Bachelor's of Science degree in Forensic Science with an emphasis in Chemistry and Biochemistry with a minor in Criminal Justice. I plan on graduating May of 2015.
