Interests
I enjoy all things animals. I have two dogs. Delilah is a shih tzu and Bella is a lab mix. I also enjoy cheerleading and dancing. I began cheering in kindergarten and ended my cheering career at Penn State Berks my freshman year. I danced for thirteen years at various dance studios. I love to travel. I have visited Canada, Bermuda, the Bahamas, Germany, and Spain. As a reminder of the trips, I collect pressed pennies and pins. Last, but not least, I love Saturday football in Happy Valley.
Aspirations
My aspirations include graduating from Penn State in spring 2017. My goal is to find a job where I can work with animals, such as at a zoo or national park.
Inspirations
My mom, Wendy, and my dad, Richard. They both have always been my number-one supporters for everything I do.
