About (request update)

From simply working fast food, to multiple volunteer opportunities with FCCLA, being an active participant in FBLA, and a culinary internship, I have found what it means to be apart of a team. I graduated with honors to show my hard work I completed in high school. FCCLA and FBLA both taught me the ins and outs of being in a professional setting to better apply it to my career in the future. My culinary internship produced me with the ideas of how a commercial kitchen operates. Critical thinking, communication, and teamwork skills are now embedded in me with the aforementioned organizations.

Current Whereabouts:

Psychology, cooking, fashion, music, time with friends.

Life & Professional Aspirations:

A future research psychologist for less-fortunate individuals in marginalized communities.
