About
I have always been indecisive about my decisions in life. For my first two years in college, I had no idea which career path I would choose. I attended Murray State College on a softball scholarship and enjoyed the ride, ending with my Associate's Degree in General Studies. For the last two years, I have attended many seminars about Occupational Therapy and the good that comes of it to those with special needs, preferably children. While attending Grayson County College, I have found my path. I've spent the last year preparing myself to move on my own and finish school. I've worked very hard to get where I am today and failed at times. Those failures are what made me work even harder to achieve my goals. I've learned that self-discipline comes a long way and it takes a strong soul to continue working hard, even after years of doing the same things. Now that I have found my path, I am ready to make a difference; not just for me, but for families all over.
