INTERESTS
I am a self-proclaimed Renaissance woman; my interests are in many areas. In my free time, I am a movie enthusiast; I love to
read, knit/crochet, and go on adventures with my friends, my family, and my partner; and I love any and all opportunities that
let me learn something new or see something from a new perspective or angle. While I have yet to acquire personal experience
beyond volunteer opportunities judging for forensic competitions, I would be incredibly interested in getting involved with
sports and/or extracurriculars in the school community, specifically basketball, softball/baseball, volleyball, fiber arts clubs such
as knitting and crochet, creative writing clubs, pop culture clubs, book clubs, debate clubs, etc.; relationship building based upon
mutual trust and respect is the foundation to education, and what better way to do so than by sharing with the community the
activities I love that extend beyond the bounds of traditional academia?
