About   (request update)
I have made it to college after making it through years of struggle. I am grateful that i have family that cares for me, but caring for me was not helping me reach where I need to be in life. Coming from a split home my relationship with my father was skewed because I was raised by my mother. When I moved with my father in my 9th grade year my life took many fast changes. My father did not tolerate my views and lifestyle and it caused a continuous battle for 3 years. Then in my senior year he kicked me out of my home. I was then forced to continue to work and go to school to complete my education despite the many challenges I had to face along the way. Although I have lived the undesirable consequences of my parents decisions it has helped me become a more determined and self-sufficient individual.
Current Whereabouts:
Vanguard Scholar Program
Life & Professional Aspirations:
I aspire to become a Forensic Psychologist and possibly work for or along side the federal government. I then plan to later retire from that career field and open my own clinic of psychological health.

Morehouse College class of 2016
Undergrad Major: Psychology
High School: T. W. Josey Comprehensive High School in Augusta, GA class of 2012
