Goals and interests

Career goal

I plan to start my own business in event planning. I have always enjoyed helping others put things together in a tasteful way. I am also very computer savvy so I would incorporate my computer skills into my business. For example, I could help market other companies/business by making business cards, flyers, invitations etc. Lastly, over the last year I have picked up photography at my current job, at the Clinton Library. I take photos in the Oval Office of tourists. They make great souvenirs! I intend to include photography as an asset to my business as well.

Graduate school interests

I am interested in furthering my education here in Arkansas. I am interested in getting my Masters at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville.

Outside the classroom

I really do not have any hobbies. When I am not a student, or a photographer, I am a mother of two!
