My grandfather was a military trauma surgeon. My parents used to tell me the story of how he saved many lives during the Second World War.

ducation – My Experiences My education began in first grade in 1974. My state didn’t mandate kindergarten‚ so my parents didn’t send me‚ even though my brothers and sister went.

My volunteer experience was conducted at the Little People’s Village‚ which is a day care center in Lungford‚ Georgia. My supervisor’s name was Mr. Larry Grimsley. I chose this agency because I wanted to work with small kids. The agency is deeply rooted in the church‚ so I knew this would be a good choice because I was brought up in the church myself.
