Biography
First, I was born on August 7. From that moment on I lived in South Amboy until seventh grade where my mother and I moved in with my grandparents, in Freehold, NJ. Unfortunately, my mother passed away when I was twelve, leaving me to continue residing with my grandparents today. This left me to basically grow up independently. My grandfather recently had heart surgery and attends dialysis 4 times daily therefore, I act as an aid for him while my grandmother works. I attended Freehold Township High School and I was nominated for Peer Leadership and mentored freshman and sophomores in handling different situations ranging from social issues to school work and time management. I was also a Student Ambassador and tutored juniors for a major state-wide test, HSPA. I have always been a leader and independent. I am very organized and love working with people, especially kids. In fact, I have been baby sitting since I was fourteen and took Child Development courses for two years. I also volunteered at Mirasol Tennis Camp for children. I am currently attending Rider University and studying Psychology and Education.
