When I was a child I never excelled at school. My report cards housed many D's and F's, so I was dead set on never going to college. In 10th grade I was doing so poorly that I decided to drop out and focus on getting my GED. Once I was in the GED program, I was taken aside by the instructor because he wanted to talk to me about my test scores. He explained to me that my scores were so high that I could not only earn my GED but also pick up a vocational program if I wanted to. I decided to try cosmetology. However, after being in the program for a few months, I didn't feel like it was a good fit and the finances weren't there for me to continue. Many years down the road I woke up with a nagging feeling that I needed to do more with my life. It just hit me out of the blue that I needed to go to college if I wanted to be successful. I started doing research and within the week I was enrolled at Argosy University earning my BA in Forensic Psychology. I was shocked to see that I was earning straight A's, because I did not think my work was worth those high marks, at least not at that point in my educational career. I began to question the grades I was earning. I started by asking my advisor about the high marks and she told me to just be happy, but I couldn't, something didn't feel right. I then spoke to my instructors who again told me to just take the grades that I was being given. This gave me a bad feeling, so I began looking for new colleges. That's when I found Southern New Hampshire University. I was disappointed because at the time they did not have the same program I was earning, so I switched majors. I switched majors a lot. I tried psychology, video game design with a concentration in storytelling, fashion, and more. The good thing was my grades were lining up with the work I was turning in, the bad thing was I didn't know who I was or who I wanted to be. It wasn't until I took a writing course that I found my passion. I loved how it felt to edit work for people, because I was helping them find their voice. I love writing stories that people enjoyed and understood. Suddenly, I could remember how much I love writing as a kid and I could see all the signs that were pointing me towards the writing industry. As a child I wrote poems, horror stories, and more, but it wasn't until that moment that I knew it was a passion of mine. It took me so long to discover myself and now I am doing all I can to catch up on all the writing I missed out on over the years. I now have my own blog page, Ubiquitous Horror, where I write short horror stories and interview those involved in the horror genre, I am working on my first book, and I am looking for work in the editing or writing field.
