About

I am a 38-year-old mother of 3. My eldest daughter is 22. Next is my 16-year-old daughter and my youngest is my son who is 14. I am currently enrolled in Kaplan University pursuing my Bachelors in Human Services. It took me a long time to make the decision to go to college however, I feel was a good one. I have very strong work ethics and I am hopeful that my children are taking into account all the work I am putting into school and follow in my steps to pursue the careers they want. I tend to sometimes worry about my path as I have no work experience in the field, however, I am positive that God is leading my way and I will end up where I need to be which is helping others.

Goals and interests

Career goal

I intend to become a Human Service Professional. I want to help people in many areas. I feel I am a human service provider already as people already turn to me for support, assistance, advice. I have always been able to set myself aside as well as my own opinions, beliefs etc, to help others.

Graduate school interests

I currently have no plans to get my Masters due to the fact that in all honesty I cannot afford it.

Outside the classroom

I am a reader and I love to research anything that interests me. I love listening to music.
