Biography...

Coming from a small town in rural mid-Michigan, I thoroughly enjoy the city atmosphere of Grand Rapids, and the peaceful environment at Grand Valley State University.

I knew from a young age I wanted to make my living through writing, because it has always been my passion. I can't even remember having a moment where I realized it, it just seemed natural.

I chose a professional writing major in order to learn skills which would be useful to my career in today's modern, technological world. I will always be a creative writer at heart, but I chose to branch out of that comfort zone.

Ideally, I will graduate and get a job with a magazine or publishing company, perhaps in Chicago or California. One day when I have children I might continue with that and work from home. Another option would be to pursue freelance writing or give being an author a shot. As long as my path leads to some form of writing, I will be happy.

Grand Valley's Influence...

I have been more than pleased with the knowledge and skills I've learned since coming to Grand Valley State University. Within the writing department I have learned a great deal about rhetoric and design, among other things. There have been many occassions where I initially felt inexperienced among my peers, but with their constructive criticism and with the guidance of my professors I feel I have grown more confident with my craft.
