Summary

I am a 20 year old from Nashville, TN. I am extremely interested in forensic psychology and would love to be a forensic psychologist for the FBI. I have been babysitting since I was fourteen and became a full time child care provider when I was seventeen. I strongly believe in teaching young children and adults that everyone's beliefs and lifestyles are valid and encouraged. I have learned excellent conflict management skills by working with young children and this has translated to my everyday life with adults.
