Personal Statement

I come from a poor background where I always felt like I would never achieve anything. I was bullied a lot growing up, but I did not let it affect who I was as an individual. I was the only child out of five siblings to graduate high school. Once I graduated, I left for the Army. I had to join the military to get out of a bad situation because I was never good at school and struggled with the basics. After leaving the military and traveling around the United States, I decided to go back to school and started pursuing a degree in social work. Life has taught me many things about being an active member of society and helping others who are in need just as I was long ago. I believe one person motivating another into paying it forward will create a domino effect of goodwill that will benefit us all.
