My educational background is in Humanities and Educational Counseling. I love spending time with my family, friends, lifting weights, and talking to people. I have two Yorkie dogs (Bailey and Louie) and enjoy spending time with them. Please feel free to reach out even if you just need some motivation. I got you!
