Personal statement

I am a junior majoring in kinesiology, exercise science. I am looking to attend graduate school, where I am undecided, but I am interested in sport sociology. I hope to utilize my education to benefit my family as well as my Hocak people; without them I would not have the opportunities in higher education that lie before me.

I am a mother and a wife; I have a two wonderful children, one 18-month-old son named Justice and one step-son, who is eight, named Ty-Anthony. I have been married for four years, and am honored to share my companionship with such a great person and friend.

I currently am a Program Assistant at the University of Minnesota in the Group Fitness Department. I am participating in TRIO program, McNair Scholars and will have the opportunity to work in the Tucker Center.

My educational journey continues to challenge me in many ways that will be beneficial to my interests and functionality. I want to continue to show my appreciation for knowledge by keeping an open mind and partaking in every opportunity to learn and grow so I can assist the next generation. I believe that the education of next generation is the key to eliminating ignorance and help in evolving society.
