    • About Me

      I am 18 years old and found out about my turners syndrome at the end of my junior year in high school. I love to read and i'm currently going to Boise State Univerity pursuing a degree in Elementary Education. I love to teach. I have a passion for it. I also have a passion for music which that and my family is probably the only thing that got me through all the things that I have experienced in my life. I was in choir for 4 years in high school and plan on joining a choir at BSU. I want to learn the guitar and if it had not been for my family. Especially my aunt I don't know how I would have made it. I lost my mom when I was 14 and my dad lives in Iceland so my aunt and my cousins are really the only thing i have right now. My mom and my aunt are my heros and I strive to have the stregth and kindness they have shown. = )
