I am currently a Sophomore at EKU. I grew up in Richmond Kentucky and was homeschooled for my entire pre-college academic career. I'm an Eagle scout with a silver palm and have been to Philmont, Northern Tier, Florida Sea base, and the Centennial Boy Scout Jamboree in 2010. I also love hiking, canoeing, and backcountry camping. Currently, I am working on a double major of B.S.
I was born and raised in a small town called Wilmington, Ohio. I graduated from Lynchburg-Clay High School back in 2005, after deciding without question that my goal in life was to become an English teacher.
