Plans
I have had the pleasure of having some of the best teachers at Hempfield Area School District, and I plan to pursue a degree in teaching History with a minor in Special Education at Slippery Rock University. I have been a leader both in the school, on the field and while mentoring. My dream is to someday return to my Alma Mater and be able to teach and mentor my students. I would also love to coach Lacrosse and help kids achieve their fullest potential.
