Welcome to my About Me page! Here you can learn about my life. I've also thrown in some pictures as well. 

Feel free to drop a comment under any of the messages / pictures :) ]]> 2021-01-19 21:08:10 UTC https://padlet.com/cher25/fvbfk9onrwjga2gf/wish/1103427480 cher25 https://padlet.com/cher25/fvbfk9onrwjga2gf/wish/1103430646 I was born and raised in the Madison area. Specifically, I grew up in Cottage Grove, WI which is about 10 minutes east of Madison similar to how Middleton is about 10 minutes west of Madison. ]]> 2021-01-19 21:09:09 UTC https://padlet.com/cher25/fvbfk9onrwjga2gf/wish/1103430646 cher25 https://padlet.com/cher25/fvbfk9onrwjga2gf/wish/1103436865 2021-01-19 21:10:51 UTC https://padlet.com/cher25/fvbfk9onrwjga2gf/wish/1103436865 cher25 https://padlet.com/cher25/fvbfk9onrwjga2gf/wish/1103443959 I went to Monona Grove High school where I did artsy things like drama club, forensics, show choir, musical, and creative writing. And yet, I wanted to become an engineer??? LOL. We don't talk about those times.

I absolutely loved my time at UW besides being overly stressed by science classes I had zero passion for. I originally studied to go to dental school but thankfully didn't follow through with that plan.

For the first time ever, it felt like I was working towards something I truly wanted to do. My classes were all fascinating, my professors were amazingly supportive, and I made some of my best friends in that program who all equally believe in creating a better education system.

A LOT of time writing... It's one of my favorite hobbies. I hope to even publish a book some day! ]]> 2021-01-19 21:24:51 UTC https://padlet.com/cher25/fvbfk9onrwjga2gf/wish/1103476678 cher25 https://padlet.com/cher25/fvbfk9onrwjga2gf/wish/1103478705 Music has always been a big part of my life! I play piano, sing, play woodwind instruments (mainly sax/flute), and write/arrange music. If you ever by chance need an acapella arrangement of a song, I love arranging acapella music for a choir.

I love videogames that have very deep, complex stories. Those games are basically just interactive books, and it's kinda awesome! ]]> 2021-01-19 21:31:37 UTC https://padlet.com/cher25/fvbfk9onrwjga2gf/wish/1103494937 cher25 https://padlet.com/cher25/fvbfk9onrwjga2gf/wish/1103503037 I hope to someday make a big impact on the education system. There are a ton of issues with education, and I want to do my part in making it more fair for people and making it so we all understand each other and help each other out more. ]]> 2021-01-19 21:34:46 UTC https://padlet.com/cher25/fvbfk9onrwjga2gf/wish/1103503037
