Bio

My life goals are to live a life I am proud of, where I am happy and can share that happiness with my family. I hope to be a professor of communication research. I am most passionate about helping others. I want to open a nonprofit that goes to different under-developed countries to work with schools and hospitals regarding communication and how it affects their people. I am a great candidate because I am a first-generation college student, and a mother. I work hard, and refuse to let life’s difficulties stop me from achieving my goals. It has taken me a long time to get to where I am today educationally, but all that matters is that I continue to show up for myself and press on.
