I attended SEMO for five years. I have always been a Criminal Justice Major. I changed my minor my sophomore year from Chemistry to Criminology, and I have never turned back. I had great teachers and one awesome adviser who I learned a lot from and got me through college each and every semester. Through my teachers eyes I realized that I wanted to work with delinquents. My fifth year, I took an intern at the Cape Girardeau Juvenile Office. I became a Truancy Officer and tried my best to make students understand how important school was. Not only did I deal with the students, but I dealt with their parents just as much. I took this intern for two semesters. The hand on experience was exactly what I needed to show me juveniles was my true calling. I love kids and I hope I can someday become a Juvenile Probation Officer.
