What Are You Most Passionate About?
I’m very passionate about kids and supporting my community. I live for shaping young ones into good people.
Who Is Your Hero? Why?
My mother is my hero. She raised me to be god-fearing woman I am today.
What Is Your Favorite Sound?
I love to hear wind chimes blowing in the wind. It is very soothing.
What Project Would A Laptop Help You With?
My plan is to create a blog for victims of bullying, a place to share stories anonymously and get advice from me and any visitors who want to chime in. The blog would also serve as a resource hub for parents to learn about the warning signs of children suffering from bullying. It is my goal to create an all-in-one stop for bullying and suicide prevention, in order to get both parents and students involved in addressing this very serious problem. I’m a grandmother of eight who has seen the debilitating effects of bullying first-hand. I’m tired of seeing children suffer.
How Would A Laptop Help You?
I currently don’t own a computer, so I have to do all of my business through my school’s computers. With a laptop, I’d be able to keep an eye on the blog at all times, even on the weekends!
What do you love about this project?
I love that I’d be able to finally help the students that I interact with every day.
What Languages do you speak?
English.
Given a choice, would you prefer a Mac or PC?
Mac.
