I was born in Iowa Falls, Iowa on August 12th, 1999. I grew up here for the majority of my life. I was crawling as soon as I could hold my own head up. I started teething and babbling at about 6 months. Then said my first word "mom" when I was 10 months. I started walking just short of being 1 year old as well. -Piaget's Sensorimotor stage & Piaget's Preoperations stage

I started kindergarten earlier than most kids, because I was rather smart. I had a huge passion for reading, and was also very good at it. I eventually started to play in softball, tennis, and basketball. I also got really good at math, but my skills in reading decreased.

Middle school was a few awkward years for me, like most people. At this point I became more focused on sports rather than school. I was getting into cross country, basketball, track, tennis, & dance team. I mostly stayed in basketball just to stay in shape but it was no longer a favorite sport. -Erikson's School Age and Adolescence stage

High school was new ball game for me. I made friends with a totally different group and became more academically involved. I am attending Iowa Falls - Alden High school and I am involved in Cross Country, tennis, and color guard. Some clubs I'm in are FCCLA, Math Club, National Honors Society, Leo Club (Purple Cord), and Girl Scouts. I challenged myself academically by taking this AP course and 3 college classes. -Kohlberg's Self-Interest Orientation stage
-Erikson's Adolescence stage -
It wasn't hard for me to choose my future. My mom, aunt, and grandma are all involved in the medical field. After figuring out what their jobs were, I just found a liking for it as well. My mom is currently a CNA, my aunt is a radiologist, and my grandma is a RN. I would like to be a Nurse Anethesist. I see this as a challenge, but I'm up for it. I really like helping people, and the thought of anything medical makes me excited.
-Erikson's Adolescence Stage -
I would like to go to Minneapolis school of Anesthesia. I would like to go here to learn even more. I've had a lot of interest in anesthesia, so that is another reason I would like to go. I haven't visited the campus, but I know I don't want to go to Iowa University.

While attending college I do not plan on working. I plan at living at home, so things will be free there. I can also go to Ellsworth for free with all the scholarships that we have in mind. Once I start living on my own I would like to start working as a CNA at a hospital. Once I receive my RN, obviously I would go work as that instead.
-Erikson's Young Adulthood stage -
None of this is set in stone, but I'm confident in my college choices. I would like to stay at home and go to Ellsworth Community College first. Through ECC, I can become a RN. After graudating from Ellsworth I would like to go to Allen College to earn my Bachelours. After this, I'd like to take a year off and move to Minnesota. I'd like to work for a year before going back to college to become a Nurse Anethesist.
-Erikson's Adolescence and Young Adulthood stages -
The thought of having children doesn't really sound pleasing to me. Although, having lots of dogs is definitly in the picture! I would like to get married at some point and start working obviously. The only reason I would not like to have children is because it's never something I dreamed of.
-Erikson's Young Adulthood and Middle Adulthood stage -
I want to leave this world with a bang. If I could choose how I want to die, I would want to die doing something I love. I've always been known for enjoying things that give me a rush. I think dying after a parachuting accident would be a good way to go.
