About

"God is within her, she will not fall" - Psalm 46:5 . Although I have encountered many obstacles in life, like losing my dad back in 2007, I have been able to keep the faith and keep pushing. With the love and support of family and friends and my belief in God, I know I am capable of doing anything I put my mind to. With the love I have for math and numbers, I am eager to become a CPA upon my completion of college and will go on to receive my Masters in Forensic Accounting. After receiving my Masters, I will go on to receive my Doctorate and eventually open my own business.
