Past: This year is my first year at Northwest but my third year in college. I went to Tacoma Community College for three years. I moved to Washington after I graduated high school in 2006. I went to Simi Valley High School in Simi Valley, California. I am the youngest of four and the only one to go to college. My youngest brother, age 23, still lives in California with my parents. My sister, 31, and her husband live with their daughter in Louisiana. My big brother, who is 33, lives in Tacoma with his wife and 2 daughters. He and his wife are and have been the most influential people in my life. They both have relationships with God and have been leading my in mine since I was very young.
