I like to tell people that I am introverted but if you ask someone else they will probably tell you I am an extrovert and will talk to anybody. I enjoy hanging out with friends, shopping, working out, and trying new things. 

I currently work for Honey Grove Education in the before and after school program. I love my job and love that I get to spend time with my kids, they have taught me so many lessons. 

Generically I would say my family shaped me as a person. They have always been there and they support me no matter what. My sisters are my built in best friends and they are the biggest blessing. 

To get more specific I would say my mom has shaped me most as a person. She is truly my best friend and no matter what happens in the world, she always would take the shirt off of her back in order to make sure I am not only okay, but that I am thriving.

Another thing that shaped me as a person was when I was in middle school my brother got in a motorcycle accident and passed away. After this I got closer with God. This taught me that you never know when its your last time seeing someone so don't hold anything back.

I decided to come to IUI because I knew I wouldn't be able to leave home. Since I have always been so close to my family I couldn't fathom the idea of being far from them.
