My family means everything to me, and we are all very close. They are all my biggest supporters and have consistently pushed me to be the best future teacher I can be. I'm so thankful for each and every one of them and the impact they've had on my life.

When COVID hit my junior year of high school, all of my nanny kids' classes went online. Because their mom worked full time and was considered "necessary," the task of helping them with school was left to me. I got firsthand teaching experience tutoring each individual kiddo and making sure they did not fall behind. This was challenging, but it made me fall in love with teaching that much more.

Working at Pine Cove Christian Summer Camps for the past two summers has given me such a passion for working with children of all ages. It's always so cool to see their eagerness to read their bible, even when they struggle with reading and comprehension. I get to play a small role in teaching them how to read, which is beyond rewarding.

Currently, I work and volunteer through Fellowship Fayetteville Church with FayetteKids. This program provides children with the opportunity to learn more about who Jesus is and how he can change their lives.
