How I Blossomed Throughout My Educational History

  • Pre-School

    Pre-School
    I started off at a local pre-school with Glen Carlin in Arlington Virginia for 2 years since my birthday fell on the deadline to start kindergarten.
  • Elementary School in Arlington Virginia

    One year during my time in elementary, the entire school had switched from one school to another. I had some great, but now faint memories here but nonetheless, a beautiful piece of my personal history resides here. From my art class with Ms. Squirrel which fueled my interest in art, to having class guinea pigs, and dual grade classes, to playing tag with our crushing during recess. Up until our move from Arlington mid way during 2nd grade.

    Move to a New City, New School, New Home, and a New Life
    In the middle of 2nd grade, my family made a giant leap as our family grew and moved 25 minutes down the road into one of the most beautiful homes i had ever laid eyes on. Began the second half of 2nd grade here and completed my elementary school experience here. Had very wonderful memories in 3rd grade with the best teacher ever, won the gumboil contest, learned cursive, went to book fairs, became a bus patrol and prepared for middle school life.

  • High School at Woodbridge

    This was a time i began to find myself. I started to grow and mature, find my way, and focus on my academics. I wasn't the popular girl in town but i also wasn't the quietest one you got to know me. I didn't even think about college but i sparked an interest in arts, and joined cosmetology.

  • Start to College Life

    Start to College Life
    I decided to follow in the path of my older sister who chose community college for 2 years..but at the beginning i remember how lost i was. i started off not knowing what i wanted to do with my future career, then during my second year of NVCC, it hit me.. from originally wanting to be a kindergarten teacher, and switching back and forth a couple of times... i found myself at peace when it just hit me.. "I'm gonna do cyber security". Link text

    Transferring to George Mason
    At Mason, my motivation and passions grew more and more. I found my true passions, my strengths and my weaknesses throughout my time taking courses in IT. Made a lot of IT friends, spent countless nights up working on homework, and successfully achieved amazing grades and a nice GPA. Link text
  • Cyber Internship at CALIBRE

    Cyber Internship at CALIBRE
    I started to get into LinkedIn, applying to IT jobs and landed a grade internship with CALIBRE that jumpstarted my career and gave me some cool experience with top of the line software and technology. I also used my skills in the programming classes i took to work on a ethical phishing scheme by testing how susceptible users would be to click a link in an email and type in their credentials into a site i created.
