Mari Weaver

Hello, thought I would give some brief information about myself and what I have done.

But besides what I have been working on and hope to try in the future, I'm generally just a eclectic person balancing pursuing my interests and figuring out exactly what I want to do. Thankfully, I still have a little bit of time and a general hint of my direction. Though I know full well that it can change all too easily,

As of lately, I have been looking out further educational opportunities post-graduation. As if I'm quite honest, this major is more of something I could go back to doing right away if I still want to work.
