Why did you decide to come to MSU and pursue a degree in education?

I decided to come to MSU and pursue a degree in education because of the atmosphere the college of education portrays.  It is one big family where everyone is helpful. I am also a part of the PANTA program, which allowed me to stay in my hometown and attend the MSU branch here in Meridian.

What do you want people to know about you?

While I am in school as a full-time student, I also work full-time at Southeast Lauderdale Middle School as a math interventionist for grades 5-8.

What advice would you give to entering freshmen or students finishing up high school?

Some advice I would give to entering freshmen or students finishing up in high school is that it is okay to ask for help sometimes, because college can get overwhelming.
