School in America

Maze Runner

Last Honors Class

College Reading
My first year of college was a tough one because of the different reading material. I really struggled to comprehend what was in the textbooks during this year. I have learned how to read textbooks in order to understand the material. -
Passing the Baton
This year I have had the opportunity to begin a new job. I am in a place where I spend a lot of time with kids. I love reading to them and passing on the love for books that I have.
