I have the best family ever! I'm from St. Louis, Missouri and have lived there all my life. I grew up with three sisters that are my biggest role models. I also got blessed with a twin sister. My bond with my sisters is so close and I am so thankful to have such good siblings to grow up with. My parents are also big role models in my life. My dad has always had my back and treated me with such genuine love. My mom is someone I can always go to with anything. My mom is a teacher and has definitely inspired me with my future profession choice! My parents make me feel so safe and welcome anywhere with them. Growing up in such a close family made it so hard to go away for college, but, it has really just made our bond closer. I cherish all the times I have with them even more now and enjoy any phone call I receive from any of them. Family is a big part of my life because my family members made me who I am as I have grown up. I will forever be thankful.

Throughout High School, I was always sure I wanted to attend the University of Arkansas. My oldest sister went there and I wanted to follow in her footsteps. My twin sister, Addie and I both toured and loved it. We applied with nerves and finally received the acceptance email months later. We were filled with so much joy and excitement! I am only a Freshman but so far I have loved it and can't imagine being anywhere else other than this University. My sister and I decided to room together which was scary at first but now we can't imagine living with anyone else other than each other. Before leaving for school I was so nervous to be on my own but slowly adjusted to it within time. I joined a sorority first semester which helped me meet so many amazing girls who helped guide me through my Freshman year and continue to give me guidance.

My major is Special Education. Throughout all my High School years, I worked for a program in my hometown called Adventure Club. It was a before and after care for elementary students. This job lead me to my major. I knew I loved this job because I never dreaded going to work. It was what I looked forward to everyday after school. I made such close connections with the kids at each school I taught at and loved learning about them. I decided to go with Special Education because I worked as a students one-on-one mentor and I loved getting to know him and learned so much from him. I love working with kids, observing how they behave, and helping them grow. I can't wait to be a future teacher!
