My abilities, based on past experiences from working in different industries, showcase my skills in communication, problem-solving, organization, and my commitment to customer service. I strive to make a positive impact and experience for customers and those around me, in any environment, at any given time.

• An activity and hobby I'm involved in is being present on social media. As a content creator who streams daily on TikTok, I strive to make a difference and use my platform as a voice for others who deserve to not only be heard, but also understood. I started social media at a young age and have been building a positive platform and community over the years.
• An activity and hobby that I enjoy doing is gaming. Gaming helps me relieve stress, create friendships and relationships, and serves as an escape away from reality. Gaming helps me build character and connect with many communities by becoming more outgoing and upfront.
• During my freshman year of college, I attended the University of Mississippi, Ole Miss, and was involved in many clubs and organizations. I was involved in Esports, Aiding Animals Club, Psychology Club, and Alpha Chi Ministry. This upcoming fall of 2025, I am transferring to Arizona State University to study Biological Sciences, and plan to enroll in a student leadership organization.
• Reading is an activity I enjoy doing to benefit myself as an individual, and express who I am as a person. Reading shares a common relationship to gaming. I am able to escape reality and use my creativity and visual imagination, along with learning new skills and ways to see the world differently.
• Writing is an activity that I have been doing since elementary school. Writing is a way for me to express myself in ways that can be hard to say aloud in person, but where I can express myself as an individual. Growing up, I have always enjoyed writing stories and bring the characters that were mentioned in my stories to life. As I got older, I transitioned from childhood fiction to a more realistic reality; I began to write stories that either served as a connection to past life experiences I witnessed, or I wrote in ways where others may be able to relate and understand.

• An accomplishment I am proud of achieving is my goal of reaching 42,000k followers on TikTok. I am continuing to grow every day and use my platform to spread positivity to others and make a difference. My goal was to build a community that focuses on self-fulfillment, encouragement, and positivity, and after 2-3 years, I did exactly that.
