About Me:

I am a sophomore student at ITW David Speer Academy. I do enjoy a lot of free time, but when it is time to get to work I am able to stay focused. Right now I am working towards raising my grades this quarter since I am kind of falling behind. I want to strive to have A's and B's again. Another thing I am working towards right now is getting accepted into a college program I want to attend over the summer. Some obstacles that I have been facing are mostly with school, but I'm working really hard to catch up. I kind of like to keep to myself most of the time, so some hobbies I enjoy are reading, listening to music, or writing.
