I work with adult students
looking to cultivate new life skills,
pursue adult basic education, or
boost their employability.
I love spending the holidays
with our residents. Last year,
the Learning Center students
went caroling at a nursing
home in North Little Rock.
Several students realized that
sometimes the best gift you can
give is intangible.
My grandmother. She is 86
years old & still manages to run
a successful little farm.
I processed photos at a small
shop in Texas. We developed
film for the police department,
so we were the first to know
about small town scandals.
I hang out with my wonderful
family & awesome dog, Jake.
A ballerina.
I had one goal as a child: to be
better than my older brother at
anything & everything. When
kids my age were learning to
add, I was playing multiplication
games with my dad & brother.
Going to my dad’s soccer
games. He was the best player,
in my opinion.
