Being a teacher and huge bookworm, my mom would always read me to sleep as a child. This created a habit that stuck with me into adulthood — reading is an essential part of my daily routine. As early as first grade, it also inspired me to attempt to create my own stories as well. The world of literature opens so many doors, and has ultimately led me to my academic focus and future career path.
