My parents and my younger brother have supported my dreams of becoming a writer since the very start. I owe everything I am to them.
My dog Oreo, who has sat next to me as I written and rewritten poems. You are the best dog a girl can ask for.
To the lifelong friends I have met in the program. Liala, Stella, and Dakota. Thank you for always cheering me on.

Favorite Saint Mary's Memory
I'll miss gathering with my peers and going to readings at De La Salle Hall. I'll miss walking by baby deer after hours when classes are over and the sun has set. I'll miss grabbing a late night cup of hot chocolate at Cafe Louis. I'll miss Dante Hall and poetry.
My Next Chapter
I hope to publish my first collection of poems within the next few years and to finish my fiction novel I have started working on. I know I'll continue writing for the rest of my life but I am excited to see what I'll learn next, what I'll see next and who will be by my side. I hope the next chapter is full of happiness above all.
