From a young age, I've always been obsessed with sports. It was my dream to play professionally or even just be apart of an athletic organization in some way. But as most kids experience, I quickly learned that a life as a professional athlete was not in the cards for me. That realization began my first realistic career aspiration. I have researched and considered many different ideas, but the very first career I wanted was the job of an elementary teacher. Even through all of the different aspirations, teaching has stayed, even if it's a fallen on my priority list. I will be interning at Meadow Elementary mentored by a third grade teacher. When I heard about the internship I got really excited, I saw it as an opportunity to test the waters of a career that I have always wanted to pursue. I was able to get the internship through an early childhood development pathway. Through this pathway and through my high school experience, I have learned skills like, public speaking, training and teaching abilities, and classroom management. While my main aspirations are currently a role in a professional sports marketing department, I am excited to experience this real world environment of an elementary school.
