Education

My educational journey began at rainbow elementary school in Coatesville, PA where i began learning to read, write and all of the other basic things that elementary school kids learn. After i graduated from Rainbow i moved on to South Brandywine middle school where learning began to get a bit more challenging for me. At this point in my life i was very lazy and uninterested with school and as a result of that i failed the 6th grade.

After failing the 6th grade i moved to Allentown, PA to live with my father to have a new start and get refocused on school. When i moved in with my father i was enrolled into South Mountain Middle School where i got a fresh start and repeated the 6th grade. Going through middle school in a completely new city turned out to be a great decision for me, seeing that i was getting involved by joining the schools basketball team and keeping my grades high.

Basketball is a big part of my education today because it motivated me to keep my grades up so that i could continue to be a part of the different basketball programs that i was involved with at the time. Basketball became such a big part of my life that it was kind how i was identified by others, which was something that i loved and didn't want to lose so i made sure i kept my head in the books. As a result i graduated onto William Allen High School where i excelled in education and in one of the main things that kept me motivated and focused which is basketball. I graduated from William Allen with the class of 2015 and i am now continuing my education at Northampton Community College where i hope to get my Associates Degree in the field of Business Administration.
