I was born and raised in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. I participated in
the EBR Magnet program throughout my academic career. Lee High
School is where I found my passion for poetry and the Army National
Guard. In my college years I chose to attend Louisiana State University.
There I majored in Sociology with a minor in Spanish. Prior to being
accepted into LSU and post to my army training, I served a mission for
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Guayaquil, Ecuador.
On my mission is where I gained cultural enthusiasm and the desire
to be more culturally diverse. My journey has taken me many places.
Ultimately, it shaped me into the well-rounded woman I am today-
and for that I am thankful.
