About
I have been a dedicated student at HCC since staring my collegiate journey there in Fall of 2020. During that time I have learned to appreciate prerequisites as they have allowed me to hone my educational responsibility and maturity as a student and adult. Many people dread prerequisites, I find them beneficial not only in their educational offerings, but also in their "real world" problem solving, time-management, and organizational aspects of everyday life. I appreciate the time I've spent completing prerequisite courses in order to receive my AA as a prerequisite to transfer to the new Audio and Music Production sequence at ISU. My efforts in prerequisites so far have yielded a certain intrinsic moral integrity to hard work, resilience, and responsibility, which will be worth more than its figurative weight in gold as I transfer into my major studies.

Goals and interests
- Career goal
I intend to complete my prerequisite AA at HCC in order to transfer into my collegiate endeavors at ISU with regards to their new Audio and Music Production (AMP) sequence. This sequence also allows students to work with industry professionals and gain insight as to how to transition into the working world behind the scenes of audio and music production. After completing my AA at HCC and ISU's AMP sequence I intend to work in the field of audio and music production, whether freelance and independent or contractually bound.
- Outside the classroom
Songwriting, amateur music production, honing instrument fluency (mostly guitar/bass), reading, and outdoor exploration/hiking are some of my hobbies.
