“Keep smiling, because life is a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about.”
-Marilyn Monroe

I graduated from Niles North High School in Skokie, Illinois in 2012. There, I was a math and english tutor, a member of the National Honors Society, and part of various clubs such as Creative Cooking Club and S.A.D.D. (Students Against Destructive Decisions) Club. I participated in Child Development and competed in the F.C.C.L.A. competition where my partner and I won at the National level for our project on Child Nutrition.

I was selected to be a 2012 Golden Apple Scholar.I currently attend DePaul University where I study Elementary Education and Mathematics.

I absolutely love volunteering! I volunteer at my former elementary school throughout the year. I am also a religous education teacher at my church for first grade.
