Lakin Welch

My major is multidisciplinary studies and the minors I’m focusing on is Child development and family studies, Early intervention, and psychology. With these minors I hope one day to work as a development specialist to help diagnose children with disabilities and special needs and to help the and the parents understand more and develop options to help. I grew up with divorced parents and 2 brothers. I also grew up helping my grandfathers Vietnam Veterans chapter with events such as parades and the Buckwheat festival. I still help them when I can because I do work full time and I’m a full time student at West Virginia University. I also have been a dancer since I was 3 and I have danced at Disney world three times. And I completed a two year program at the Monongalia Technical Education Center in the Early childhood Education and Careers in Education program.
