I am currently attending the University of Arkansas where I am an Elementary Education student, on the path to get my Master's. I have a passion for reading and am excited to explore that passion more at school. At Arkansas, I am also on the executive board of my sorority. I am super passionate about Phi Mu and the community it has brought me. If you can't find me in the classroom, you can usually find me hanging out with my sisters!

Why I am the Way I am.

My Family is a huge part of my life. I have a very large family that I am super close with. I grew up with 5 older brothers and that definitely shaped me today. They are my biggest support system and I am super lucky to have them in my life. I am super close with my parents, especially my mom. There isn't a day that I don't call her. My family is one of the biggest parts of my life.

My "Why"

In high school I had so many opportunities to teach in younger classrooms. I was able to work in preschool classroom and first grade classrooms. In these classrooms, I fell in love with teaching. I loved getting to see the kids and building connections with them. I loved it so much that I decided to make teaching my lifelong career.
