Why I picked speech
The science field of communication disorders has been of interest to me since my early childhood years. As a toddler, my younger brother Paul suffered forma severe ear infection, which caused him to lose fifty percent of his hearing. Due to this, Paul developed a speech impediment. At the age of seven I was introduced to the communication disorders field when I accompanied my brother for his first speech lesson. I remember observing through a one way mirror as the speech pathologist worked with my brother on pronunciations, syllables and playing phonics games.

Scholarship because I have proved to be a dedicated and involved student during my Taunton High School career. I am hoping that a good financial aid package will help defray expenses, but I know that I will need assistance from other organizations to achieve my goal.

Throughout my four years of high school I have tried to take courses related to the communication disorders and science fields. I have been a hard working student throughout my years of schooling, because one day I hope to have an impact on children's lives the way someone did my brother's. I have been an extremely busy student. As I further my education, I plan to continue my involvement and further pursue my leadership qualities. Although I feel I have been an asset to my school, my desire to achieve my dream of becoming a speech pathologist can not be accomplished by dedication and inspiration alone. Dedicating much of my time to school related activities, has been a wonderful experience. I enjoyed watching these lessons, and as I grew older, my curiosity grew even stronger, which made me investigate this field as a career. Many of our school functions have been left to my responsibility, such as "Spirit Week", "Senior Week", proms, school dances and more. Throughout my four years of high school I have excelled academically and athletically. Each college that I have applied and been accepted to, including Northeastern University and the University of New Hampshire requires immense sums of money. I am an excellent candidate for the Massachusetts Association of Insurance Women, Inc.
