I am a junior in the Cormier Honors College at Longwood University. I am Liberal Studies with a concentration in elementary education to obtain my licensure. My goal is to also study special education as well and am hoping to attend graduate school to earn a Master’s degree in Child Development.

I am one of nine children, which I suppose helped foster my love for children and the want to help educate them. Because I grew up in this environment, I developed many qualities that will be helpful as a future educator, a few being patience and inclusion.

I am constantly busy between school and work, but I make sure to reserve time for both my family and my community.
