About
I’m currently a student at The University Wisconsin-Milwaukee. I intend to major in Marketing as well as to minor in graphic design. I’ve found a passion for being a leader towards my fellow piers whithin my life. From a young age, I’ve always had an eye for creativity and design. I would love to tie the two components together to furthermore find a job that suits my interest. Within my life, I've been able to experience and learn what it takes to be a leader within my community. Through my involvement in Gymnastics being a team captain was my first attributions towards what it takes to be a team leader. Through constant pep talks with my teammates, and one on one conversations with myself before each and every routine, I learned that within the sport of Gymnastics comes more than just the routine but the family that’s cheering you on the side. I’m passionate about taking a team of innovating seeking scholars to be involved in creating something that in turn leads to a better and advanced way of thinking. I don't know what the future has in store for my current passion. Each day I learn and develop more awareness of what goes on. 5 years down the road my current path may change but within the change, I hope to have learned and be a more self-compassionate individual with a mind of her own to become a leader to change the way we humans look at certain aspects of life.

- Outside the classroom
Some of my hobbies include: taking pictures, writing, and running. Photography has always been a hobby that I take to heart with myself. I'de like to think that I'm a little different than the average person. I find that within life is a special yet absolutely beautiful time for focusing on moments. Capturing moments of time is something that I find so special that's why I love photography so much. I take pictures of many families and kids. The most rewarding aspect of photography that I take apart from just the picture is the end result of that individual picture. It's all about the smile. When you see a family come together that's happy with each other I guess for me it just self-filling. Along with photography, I've also been heavily involved with writing. More or less writing about more inspirational topics of life rather intellectual concepts. Writing to me is a gateway from the outside world that captures my attention to be fully numb within time. To keep active, I run just about every day. Ranging from 3 to 11 miles depending on the day. It's a natural high that always makes me running back for more. After being done with gymnastics I was lost with what I could do to keep in shape. Running was just what I needed to get myself back on track.
