Favorite Class: Student Literacy Corps class because I need to complete 22 hours at the school in Paterson, Public School 28. I love the experience in the classroom and the students are so cute and intelligent.

Favorite Place on Campus: The library because it is beautiful, and I can concentrate so well on any work I need to get finished.

Future Plans: I plan to study abroad in the summer of my sophomore year in Denmark or in any other possible location of my choosing. I am hoping to get an internship with SoccerShots in the summer near my hometown in Ocean County, and I am planning to be involved in a new club my friend put together, Rotaract club. My post-graduation plans are to get more experience teaching in an elementary classroom and further my education by obtaining my master’s degree in special education.
