A little bit about me

Hello, my name is XZaria, I’m an 17 year old African American young lady who was born and raised in Chicago. My birthday is February 1st I’ll soon be 18! My favorite color is pink & yellow. Im a senior in high school now at Rowe-Clark Science Academy. I’m a big sister to 2 , as well as a god sister to 3 younger kids and an aunt! I come from a very family oriented household where family is big to me. I love to be around my family, I love relationships I cherish the times with friends and family most. I love to dance and shop. I’m taking classes at my school now for early childhood education as I wish to be an Early Childhood Educator. I have many experiences with younger kids because I have an 8 year old brother who I cared for and helped grow for the 8 years he’s been alive. As well as an aunt to my nieces & nephews who are the ages of newborns-5 years old. I always been passionate about teaching kids ever since I can remember, and I hope this can be another opportunity for me!
