I grew up in a small town of a little under 5000 people called Tuscola in Illinois. This small community may not have the advantages that a city like Chicago or St. Louis has, but it gave me everything I needed to not only succeed but thrive. It was here I found my first jobs. I worked a year in a retail store as a sales associate as well as at a hardware store among others. All of my numerous job experiences have crafted me into a hardworking persevering individual.I am now currently a full time student at the University of Kentucky J. David Rosenberg College of Law. My small high school taught me to be a leader and how to think critically about problems I face because of my involvement in many different organizations. My time at Indiana University gave me an in depth exposure to the business world and the inner workings of a business. Together, my high school and college educational experiences have given me breadth and depth that will be useful as a future attorney.My ambitions in life are high. I intend on receiving my law degree from the University of Kentucky J. David Rosenberg College of Law. Along the way I will garner many experiences that will help me to become a very well rounded and great employee for whoever I may work for in the future.
