I\u00a0graduated from High School in 2013 From Norview High School and, that was a true milestone because to honest I don&#8217;t think I could have made it without God and from my support system my parents and family. I than moved on to\u00a0continue my education at TCC which is known as Tidewater Community\u00a0College in Norfolk, Virginia I choose to attend a community college first because, \u00a0I felt like I needed to find myself within me and also in my career path itself I wanted to know what I wanted to major in and still attend College. Meanwhile, I had the grades to attend a four year University I didn&#8217;t want to waste my parents hard earned money to attend college and not do well even though I know I would\u00a0excellent. I graduated from TCC with a associates degree in Social Science in May \u00a0of 2016 that made my parents, family, and I feel so good deep down inside knowing that I\u00a0accomplish something when people even teachers told me that I couldn&#8217;t learn nor would ever be anything in life. \u00a0I decided to continue because, I had a dream and I knew I wanted to purse a degree from ODU just like my older sister did which is my role model. My great support system which are my parents are the greatest I&#8217;m fortune to have them and they have the resources\u00a0 to support me and my sisters because, they went to school and work hard and have great careers to support me and\u00a0encourage me to go\u00a0beyond the norms of African- American young female. My family has been a great help and support though me education path and, I&#8217;m blessed to have my parents through this huge\u00a0journey. My future goals are to finish ODU with a bachlors in Psychology go on and purse a Masters degree and the, to hold my PsyD either as a\u00a0forensic psychologist or a\u00a0counselor. I also, even dream of becoming\u00a0motivational speaker and to have my own support group one day.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/gary-psych\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5030\/2017\/09\/shutterstock_311350124.jpg.CROP_.promo-xlarge2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-92\" src=\"http:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/gary-psych\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5030\/2017\/09\/shutterstock_311350124.jpg.CROP_.promo-xlarge2-300x214.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"214\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/gary-psych\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5030\/2017\/09\/shutterstock_311350124.jpg.CROP_.promo-xlarge2-300x214.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/gary-psych\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5030\/2017\/09\/shutterstock_311350124.jpg.CROP_.promo-xlarge2-768x548.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/gary-psych\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5030\/2017\/09\/shutterstock_311350124.jpg.CROP_.promo-xlarge2-1024x731.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/gary-psych\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5030\/2017\/09\/shutterstock_311350124.jpg.CROP_.promo-xlarge2.jpg 1180w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My life experiences with my education has been\u00a0challenging because, of my ADHD and learning\u00a0disability it has been a\u00a0journey people just don&#8217;t understand.
