About

I started my educational journey in 2017 as an Early Childhood Education major at Slippery Rock University in Pennsylvania. During covid in 2021, my education was interupted and I decided to take some time off. As someone who works full time to support myself, I was unable to continue at my current university. When I decided to go back to school, I was looking for university that made it easy for working adults to continue their education and I found Walden University. I started at Walden in 2022 and I received a Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education in November of 2024.
