Why did you decide to come to MSU and pursue a degree in education?
I decided to come to MSU and pursue a degree in education because I want to teach children the importance of having an education that will allow them to be successful in whatever field they choose to pursue. I believe that having a solid educational foundation and developing a love for learning is critical in the develpment of a child. I also want to teach children life lessons that will be helpful to them in and out of the classroom.
What do you want people to know about you?
I am kind, hardworking, and encouraging! I am always looking to build someone up that is down, or help someone that is in need. I always try to keep a smile on my face, and a positive attitude regardless of the situation.
What advice would you give to entering freshmen or students finishing up high school?
My advice would be to continue to be yourself regardless of where you decide to go to school or what major you plan to pursue. I would also tell them to always do their best.
