About

I'm someone who loves to write, but always find I either have a difficult time writing about myself, or I write too much information about myself, bordering on oversharing.
I worked as a prekindergarten teacher for 3 1/2 years, obtained my Child Development Associate credential in preschool age 3 to 5 on August 31, 2021, which resulted in my peaked interest of child and adolescent psychology. The more I looked into it, the stronger my drive to pursue my education in the field. By October of 2021 I was enrolled with Southern New Hampshire University and have since maintained a 3.9 GPA. My biggest difficulty with school lies in any math field, and my strongest would be my writing skills, which I utilize every term for research and journals in my classes.
I love cats, have four of them. I also have one dog and was recently engaged on January 24, 2024. I do intend to have children of my own one day, but am currently only an aunt to 12 nieces and nephews varying in age between newborn and 20 years of age. I realized my education was not only helped in my career, but also in being a better aunt and person.
