Goals and interests

Career goal

My intended career path would be to teach in low income school districts at the lower elementary level. I am looking towards the low income schools because I am set on helping and changing the lives of my future students in the unprivileged areas.

Graduate school interests

I would like to attend grad school immediately finishing my bachelors degree at Oregon State University. Having a master's degree in education can really benefit my learning and experience with becoming a teacher as well as receiving employment.

Outside the classroom

I love being involved in my community, especially areas involving children. Giving back to the town I grew up in is important to me so I try and become involved in anyway I can. I love to be active in the outdoors, I believe that exercising is a great way to ease your mind and can only benefit your brain to learn.
