Birthday!
I was born in Fort Wayne, Indiana at Parkview hospital. -
Moved to Indianapolis
My dad received a promotion, which caused us to move to Indy. At this point I already had three of my sisters born and I was in first grade. I learned from this how to adapt to a completely new situation. -
Disney World Trip
I added this because it was one of my favorite memories as a child and I think me and my sisters really bonded on this trip. -
Zoe was born
My youngest sister, Zoe, was born. She is my moms fifth and last kid. Having all my younger sisters in my life gave me a motherly instinct and I am extremely protective over all of them. -
Big Move to New York
My dad's job caused us to relocate once again to New York City. This was the biggest change I have experienced in my life. This move taught me to be adaptable, seize opportunities as they arise, and be there for the people I love. -
Broadway!
I added this because it was one of my favorite memories of New York. We got to see Phantom of the Opera on Broadway and it was amazing!!! -
Accepted into a Performing Arts Middle School
In New York, you had to apply, test, audition, etc. for middle schools. It was a lot like the college application process, you would write an essay even. At the top of my list for middle schools was New Voices, a performing arts middle school because I am a dancer. After a lot of applications, tests, and auditions, I got my first choice. :) -
Moved back to Fort Wayne
My parents got separated and my mom, my sisters and I moved back to Fort Wayne to be closer to family. This was a very hard time in my life, but it forced me to grow up faster which made me more mature in the long run. -
Started at Towles
This was the first Montessori school experience and I hated my entire class. It was a learning experience of collaborating with people I don't get along with. -
Started High School
I started high school this year, and I had never been more excited for anything. -
Quit Dancing
My whole life I had been a ballet dancer, so this was an extremely sad time when I had to quit because of a problem with my foot. I loved dancing and I still do, but this taught me that sometimes you just have to move on. -
NSLC: Psych and Neuro
This was the most amazing trip I have ever been on. I went to American University in Washington D.C. for Psychology and Neuroscience for 9 days, with no one I know. This trip confirmed that I want to be a psychiatrist one day, and it taught me you need to take opportunities when they are presented.
