I am currently an Exercise Science major at Illinois State University. With this degree, I plan on going to graduate school to become an Occupational Therapist and work with a wide range of people in need. I was born and raised in Northbrook, Illinois and attended private Catholic schools from preschool until my senior year of High School. I was extremely fortunate to attend Catholic schools because I truly realized the importance of helping those around me. For example, I participated in many after-school volunteer programs and I went on a summer service program to the small town of Cairo, Illinois. I believe that with this form of contact with people, I fell in love with the idea of becoming an Occupational Therapist and helping other people purely because I want to help them.
