I've lived in Fayetteville, AR my entire life! This picture is of me, my mom, and dad at my senior night at Fayetteville high school. I've done competitive dance my whole life and I used to play softball too! I couldn't imagine a better place to grow up and flourish. It's the perfect balance of city life and country life for me, I can't stand being in NYC but also can't stand being in rural Texas. It's just the perfect combination for someone like me! Fayetteville also blessed me with my favorite childhood home, my childhood and life long best friends, and endless happy memories. I am very grateful to say that my hometown has given me all these wonderful experiences and feelings. Nowhere else will ever feel like home the way Fayetteville does.

I ended up following my dad's footsteps to the University of Arkansas! I also knew I wasn't ready to leave my beloved hometown just yet. My major is secondary education and I love it so much! I am on track to becoming a middle school English Language Arts teacher and I am so excited. I am so passionate about teaching young minds and influencing the next generation of doctors, lawyers, educators, and the list goes on. I know I have had a lot of struggles with school, so I can't wait to be able to guide and help students who were just like me navigate the same difficulties of school and life.

Our family has grown a lot over the past few years, it was just us three daughters my parents had. Now I have four nephews and two brother-in-laws! Being the youngest I never was around a big family when my sisters moved out, but now there's an entire army of us! They all gave me the greatest gift by making me an aunt and I love my nephews more than anything this earth has to offer! That sounds like a lot and it is! They are the sweetest boys I have ever met and they light up my life every single day. Seeing my parents as grandparents now also warms my heart, my dad finally got some boys after being overpowered by girls! My family means a lot to me and I love them very much, and I know they love me very much too :)
