Personal Statement

Since I was a young student, I strived to ensure that those students underrepresented in our educational systems gained a voice. Being a woman of color in a classroom lacking diversity gave me the emotional tools to support those who feel unaccommodated in their classes. I find my passion lies most with helping those who suffer from oppressions faced in our educational and judicial systems. I have participated in numerous outreach programs supporting minorities, with my most recent trip to Standing Rock, North Dakota. As a future educator I vow to support all students, strongly believing in their potential for success.
