About (request update)

Current Whereabouts:

Spending time with friends and family, baking, reading, and participating in community service events. As an Elementary Education major, I also enjoy learning about teaching strategies, child development, and ways to create engaging learning experiences for students.

Life & Professional Aspirations:

My goal is to become an elementary school teacher who inspires and empowers students to reach their full potential. I hope to create a positive, inclusive, and supportive classroom environment where all students can succeed. In the future, I would also like to pursue leadership opportunities in education, such as becoming a curriculum specialist or school administrator, so I can make a broader impact on student achievement and educational excellence.

Education (request update)

Oakwood University class of 2028

Undergrad Major: Elementary Education

Claim To Fame:

My claim to fame is my commitment to education and service. While pursuing my degree in Elementary Education at Oakwood University, I have actively worked with children through tutoring, summer academic programs, library services, and educational leadership opportunities. My passion is helping young learners discover their potential and creating classrooms where every student feels valued, supported, and capable of success.

Most Memorable Moment:

My most memorable college moment has been having the opportunity to minister through worship. Whether serving in the choir or participating in Divine Praise as a praise dancer, these experiences have allowed me to use my gifts to glorify God and impact others. Being able to combine my passion for worship with service to others has made my college experience truly unforgettable.
