I've been teaching with AWC for many years and love to help students learn Economics. In 2018, I reached one of my long-term academic goals by earning my Doctorate in Business. I'm so thankful it's done! As far as interesting facts...I was born in Germany, have jumped out of an airplane at midnight with a full combat-load of equipment, and I love to kayak each week. I hope we have a GREAT semester! michellesims https://padlet.com/michellesims/ys4y65pc9usd9zi1/wish/677870553 2020-08-12 21:42:26 UTC https://padlet.com/michellesims/ys4y65pc9usd9zi1/wish/677870553 https://padlet.com/michellesims/ys4y65pc9usd9zi1/wish/684315611 Hi! My name is Alianna Villa, and I am 19 years old. A long term academic goal for me is to get my bachelors in Business, and start my own companies one day. I am still unsure as to what business I would start, but I am determined to be my own boss in the future. An interesting fact about me is that I played golf for 3 years in high school. Although, I was never really good at it!! ]]> 2020-08-18 05:47:56 UTC https://padlet.com/michellesims/ys4y65pc9usd9zi1/wish/684315611 Carrie Davis cad39 https://padlet.com/michellesims/ys4y65pc9usd9zi1/wish/686151189 Hello everyone, my name is Carrie and I am currently pursuing my degree in business and plan on continuing on to a university to get my bachelors in Accounting. I currently work for an agriculture company in accounting and have worked in accounting for over 15 years, so it's time for me to get my degree so I can become a successful controller. I have 3 children, my daughter is 26 years old and I have two sons 21 and the other 11. They are the reason I am working so hard to get my degree. Here's to a great semester!]]> 2020-08-18 22:37:13 UTC https://padlet.com/michellesims/ys4y65pc9usd9zi1/wish/686151189 https://padlet.com/michellesims/ys4y65pc9usd9zi1/wish/686155950 Hello, My Name is Nadia Salazar and I am 19 years old. I am currently working on a business degree at AWC and will be transferring over to GCU next fall to earn my bachelor’s degree in accounting. I hope to later earn my master’s degree and become a Certified Public Accountant. Something interesting about me would have to be that I am HUGE baseball fan. I’ve grown up with it, I love the game, and everything that has to do with it. Looking forward to a great semester! ]]> 2020-08-18 22:42:14 UTC https://padlet.com/michellesims/ys4y65pc9usd9zi1/wish/686155950 https://padlet.com/michellesims/ys4y65pc9usd9zi1/wish/686494572 Hello, My name is Kris Hendershot and I am 42 and still going for a associate in Sports Management.  My long term goal for school is to obtain some kind of Bachelors degree....Still undecided just because I am focusing on the first goal.  I only have like 5 more classes to go and it has been a long journey for me.  I love coaching sports and have been for over ten years here locally.  I guess something interesting about me would be even though I am established and somewhat successful, my kids wonder why I still want to go to school.  When I finish I will be the only one in my family to have a degree.

I am currently working towards my associates in psychology and in animal production. I have had a passion for working with animals since my childhood but I always thought that it was an impossibly long road to become a veterinarian. My husband and I recently spoke about our future and decided that it is worth a shot to try to reach my goals and so I started on this journey. My husband, our three sons (ages 4, 2, and 7 months), and I run a small farm on the outside of town and that is where all my time is invested apart from school. I find economics very interesting: I think it is an important subject since so much of our lives is affected by it. I enjoyed getting to know everyone with their introductions, I hope everyone has a great semester!]]> 2020-08-24 04:19:38 UTC https://padlet.com/michellesims/ys4y65pc9usd9zi1/wish/693921880 Cristobal Castorena cfc12 https://padlet.com/michellesims/ys4y65pc9usd9zi1/wish/703006302 Hey everyone, my name is Cristobal Castorena and I'm in my junior year here at AWC and I am currently aiming for a degree in agricultural science!
