I knew I wanted to become a teacher when I began working with kids this past summer. I have worked at an after school program for over a year now. I have always loved kids, but this job made me realize that this is what I want to do with my future.

The U of A

I graduated high school from Har-Ber High School in Springdale, AR this past May. I am a freshman at the University of Arkansas and majoring in Elementary Education. I always knew that I was going to be a Razorback, and I love it here!

My Future

After I graduate from the University of Arkansas, I plan to stay here in North West Arkansas. My mom is a teacher in the Springdale School District, So I think that it would be awesome to work in the same district as her, or even the same school! I really want to be a kindergarten teacher. I feel like those are the kids that I connect with best. I just love them and think that they are so precious!
