About

A couple of years ago I realized that I had many college credits that were not doing anything so I decided to finally finish school and do it right. I applied to my dream school and moved to the state of Hawai'i. I went to the school to pursue my degree in Communications and the intention to go into the school of Library Information Sciences for my masters.

I got into the National Honors Society for Communications, Lamda Pi Eta and I got a small scholarship called the "Library Treasures Scholarship".
