Personal:
I was born and raised in Southern Utah (Go Beaver!), and actually wasn't planning on staying here for college. I applied to a lot of out of state schools, but I earned a full ride to SUU and it was too good to pass up so I stayed! I'm planning on staying in Southern Utah for another few years as I finish up my degree.

Why I chose prevention:
My interest in prevention actually started when I was only in the 7th grade. I was a part of the Personal Empowerment Program in Beaver, and I told Ronda I wanted to be in her youth coalition. I was too young then, but the second I was in 9th grade I applied. Honestly I'm not really sure why I initially wanted to be a part of prevention, but it's been something that I've found passion for as I go along. I was the president of the youth coalition when I was in high school, and I kenw this was something I could see myself doing after I graduated too. I found my college's coalition, Healthy T-Birds, and I also found an AmeriCorps VISTA position opening in Cedar. I applied a few days later and I've been here since then!
