About
I am a very outgoing and intelligent person. I love to meet new people and learn about their cultures and their life experiences. I have many opinions but the way that I have come upon those, other than learning new points of view in class, is by sitting and discussing controversial ideas with friends and classmates. I believe that bouncing ideas off of each other can create a more elaborate opinion on a topic. I can be reserved about personal subjects but very talkative about anything else. I like learning, and I think working hard now will mean later on in the future I will be in a work place I enjoy.

Goals and interests
- Career goal
My original idea as to what I wanted to do for the rest of my life was to major in psychology, with a focus on adolescents from the ages of 13-18 and possibly have motivational speaking involved. I enjoy helping others and I would love to do this specifically because those ages were the roughest part of my life and I would like to help teens of that age realize that they are not alone and there is always help they must only go out and find it.
- Outside the classroom
I like to crochet, read, draw, sing and meditate.
