Milestones

My road in life has taken me all over.
I was raised on a farm and learned to put others' needs before my own.
I loved being in 4-H where I learned to explore the world and be a leader.
Even though I had no clue what I wanted I went to college.
I decided to "pause" my education and joined Americorps NCCC.
I returned to college, to finish- and had to declare a major- still having no clue what i wanted!
I decided to do another Americorps Program with Boys Hope of Baton Rouge.
I looked for jobs "helping" people and just kept doing it.
I made a gigantic move and took a job that introduced me to Nicolet College and it's staff.
