Personal Statement
I am passionate about photography. Photography became a big part of my life. I started getting interested in to photography when I was 12. I think I take great pictures. I started with a small digital camera, and it had great quality. My dad saw that I really liked photography, and he started to get me better cameras. Now I have a professional camera, a Canon Rebel 4TI.
I am great with technology and have been using it since third grade. I have improved significantly and learned how to use new software: Microsoft Word, PowerPoint and Publisher. So, if you're stuck on something and having problems, ask me! I can help!
I also have practiced great responsibility with kids. I was a safety patrol in elementary school. I had to walk the kindergardeners to class every morning. I also take care of my cousin and nephew. When I was younger, my mom used to take care of other kids and I used to help her. If they were big kids, I would help them with their homework or help them study.
