I have a warm heart when it comes to children, I’m the eldest of six children and I am usually the one who everyone comes to for comforting, understanding, and just to listen. When I was applying for college I immediately chose Human Development and Family Sciences with a focus on Family and Child Services; and I have not changed my mind yet.

I instantly begin to join organizations that cold potentially help me stand out in my field of study. I joined the African American Student Association, and then worked in the organization as a member, which I attended community services, programs, and experienced a Big XII Conference.

Being involved with AFRO-AM I learned to become a leader for my fellow African American colleagues. I also joined Minority Women’s Association as a freshmen and I was so interested in the diversity of the group. Although it seemed like it was an organization for African American’s I knew deep down I wanted to change the face of that. My sophomore year I was elected president we slowly began to change the face of Minority Women’s Association. I was elected for a second term and I can proudly say that MWA is doing better than ever. We’re in the community giving back as much as we can, our meetings hold a larger diverse crowd, and we are striving to reach out to all the women on campus to help them grow politically, socially, and academically while studying here at Oklahoma State
