A little bit about me

Hey all, I'm currently a marketing major at UK and am in AFROTC. I've grown up with a younger sister and multiple younger cousins. I would babysit them whenever I was needed and sometimes ran them around to practices. I love going outside and keeping active. Also, I really enjoy having an influence on younger generations and I hope I can impact each one's life in a positive manner.
