Goals and interests
- Career goal
My plan is to get my bachelors degree ,and then get a job in a company that focuses on the arts.If I don't join an existing company I would start a non-profit company of my own. Running a non profit organization would give me a chance to provide people that couldn't normally afford piano lessons, dance classes etc, an opportunity to expand on their creativity.
- Graduate school interests
If get enough financial aid I would love to get my masters at Colombia University or New York University. I would get my master's in either something business related or writing based.
- Outside the classroom
In my free time I love to sing, dance,write,and read. I sing in my church choir and choreograph my own dances. I love to write songs, poems and stories.I also enjoy reading a novels when I have spare time
