"About Me"

Hello everyone! And a special hello to all the Speech and Hearing majors out there! I am proud to say I that I too am a future Speech Pathologist hoping to have a great senior year and graduate in the spring. I am a native Arizonan and grew up in a large family with 4 other sisters and a brother. With me being the second oldest, the six of us range in age from 23 down to 13. It is definitely a unique experience both growing up with some siblings, and then also being able to help raise the younger ones. I love being able to go back home, where I can catch up on the day-to-day drama of my middle school sister, help the high school one with her impossible math homework, and also count on a free home cooked meal.
Besides spending quality time with the family, I love hanging out with friends, watching movies, listening to music, and also have a passion for running. I don't run for the time or the competition, but rather as my method of escape when life gets stressful. When it's just me and the road, and I'm running to the beat of my favorite song, it sends me to an alternate universe where I suddenly know the answer to all of the problems of the world :)
Well, that's a little about me, and if you're interested stay tuned for more... I hope everyone is having a great first week of school and staying cool, despite the never-ending Arizona heat!~
