In High school I thought everything would be easy, building houses with a big smile across my face. But I ended up being 1 of 3 raffled out of the full Buidling Trades II class so in a snap decision I took Fire Science. After taking the class I became a fire fighter for 3 years, but during that time switched paths again making my college studies in the field of Psychology. Quickly it became apparent that Psychology was disillusioned and that it was not only western medicine but systemic. I dropped out of school to self educate and quit my job to travel so I could see the world through my own eyes, not the lens being provided to me. I dream someday of becoming a professor, making students into scholars (like my favorite professor once said). For now I want to keep my writing skills sharp to someday write a book, and I think travelling in South America this spring and being in chicago during may will be great material.
