Affiliations
- I enjoy being creative and artistic, even in grade school myself I remember doing very elaborate art projects and at this point one day hoping I could be a teacher students later in life. I am a very creative person. I enjoy expressing this in various ways. I would love to be able to incorporate this into my career path. Teaching is a very creative field as you are always needing to adapt and make improvements to lessons. I really enjoy expressing myself and want to show students that it is okay to have their own personality and interests aside from those immediately around them.
- I enjoy arts of all forms. Some of my favorites include crafting, painting, drawing, and music. I explore many different forms of these art types. I have been expanding my artistic abilities for the last 10 years of my life. Art has always been something that has excited me and drawn my interest.
