About

My academic goals include graduating from Clark College with an AA, and transferring to a University to complete my Bachelors. My first choice is the University of Washington's Individualized Studies program. Second to that is a Biology major with a minor in Graphic Design from other universities in the Washington/Oregon area. I like to learn, but those are the areas in which I have the most skill. My reading and writing skills are excellent. I can learn almost anything I put my mind to, and enjoy doing so, which is the main reason I can succeed in academia and beyond.

Goals and interests

Career goal

I'm not entirely sure what I want to do, because I'm young and have many interests. I'm a Running Start student, and will graduate high school with an AA from Clark College in 2017. I do know that I like to travel. My talents/skills are mostly in the artistic/writing/biology fields. Optimally I would like to incorporate multiple skills/talents into one job. but I haven't found an artistic biology field as of yet. I'm eager to learn, achieve, and work, so whatever I decide on I know I'll do well.

Outside the classroom

My hobbies include fishkeeping, reading, writing, painting/drawing, playing the piano, singing, exploring and learning. I drink excessive amounts of coffee and wear lots of comfortable clothing. It helps me focus on more important things like school ( at least I say it does). I'm generally a pretty relaxed person. Appearance and materialistic things are of little value. I focus on knowledge, wisdom, working hard, and respect. I am a strong believer in self-sufficiency and helping others when you are able. I would consider college both a hobby and a necessity, because it's not just for a career. I enjoy learning new things.
