Personal History

  • My Birthday - Personal

    Well, I don't remember this day, but it definitely is a major part of my personal history!
  • Started School - Professional

    Although I didn't know it at the time, this was the beginning of a huge chapter in my life -- 13 years of public school.
  • Baptism - Personal

    This was a commitment I decided to make at a young age. Although I do not regret getting baptized at such a young age, I have realized that I did not fully understand the decision I was making. Regardless, I am glad that I made the decision on my own to follow in Christ's footsteps.
  • Papa Passed Away - Personal

    I was very close to my dad's dad and his passing was the first death in my immediate family in which I understood what death was. It was a hard time for the entire family and it has had a significant impact on my life.
  • High School Senior Play - Personal

    My high school puts on a senior play every year. My class performed "Footloose". It was a lot of hard work, but it is by far the most memorable part of my four years in high school.
  • Graduated High School - Professional

    This was the end of a huge chapter in my life. This indicated the start of so many new things such as college, moving out of the house, becoming more responsible, etc.
  • Graduation Trip - Personal

    My mom took both of my sisters and I on our own trip when we graduated from high school. My mom and I went to California for one week. We flew into San Francisco and flew out of Los Angeles. We spent the week driving down Highway 1 and staying at various locations. It was full of amazing memories I get to share with my mom.
  • Started College at CNU - Professional

    I can still remember how nervous I was to start college. I am thankful for my sisters and other family and friends who helped encourage me through this time. It was definitely the beginning of some of the most fun and stressful times of my life so far.
  • Accepted into Teacher Education Program - Professional

    I was officially accepted into the upper level education courses! I was very excited to begin what would prepare me for my future career.
  • College Graduation - Professional

    This will be the closing of another big chapter in my life. But it will hopefully be a preparation for a new chapter in my life - my career as an educator.
