Hi everyone!


My name is Kadee Duggar. I'm from Houston, Texas (Go Astros!), but I am currently moving to LA. I am pursing a degree in Education, and hope to learn how to be a better public speaker in general from this course. I got engaged this Summer on my birthday, and I'm getting married in February- I'm so excited! I love working with kids, and I have the awesome opportunity of being a "Kidz Klub" director at a non-profit organization here in LA. I look forward to working with all of you, and I trust that this class will be very beneficial. Thanks everyone!

This is my second class with Lone Star, and so far has been a great experience. I attend the University of Houston, and will graduate in December 2018 with my Communications degree. I am from Houston, Texas and have lived here my entire life. I have to have this public speaking class under my belt to continue with the remainder of my communication classes. I hope to gain the confidence and any additional knowledge that will help me with connecting with an audience. I currently work at an oil and gas company, but this is not where my heart is. Although this is an amazing company, and I have a great boss, my heart is in the veterinary industry. My background is veterinary science, and I would love to get involved in the pharmaceutical field. After earning an A in this class, I plan to transfer this credit to U of H, and continue to do great and graduate in a year.]]> 2017-10-24 19:48:21 UTC https://padlet.com/hdhollis77/ybxuuo2iiqtt/wish/200185840 About Me https://padlet.com/hdhollis77/ybxuuo2iiqtt/wish/200206555 Howdy, my name is Richard McCoy and I am form Cypress, TX.
