My name is Amanda, and I aspire to be a doctor. I was born and raised in Anchorage, Alaska, which is where I currently reside. I attend UAA full-time, and when I'm not studiously camping out in the library, you might find me hiking in the Chugach mountain range, cross country running or skiing, or hanging out with my family. I'm also the co-president of the UAA Premed Club, and am currently working on establishing the Alaska chapter of the Cambodia Kids Project. I enjoy dedicating time to public service and campus involvement.
My last experience with a writing class was way back in high school when I took Advanced Placement English & Composition. I wouldn't say it was an entirely awful experience, but I definitely didn't get the most out of the class that I could have. I was a mediocre writer at best. Currently, I almost solely write cut-and-dry science research papers. I am, however, excited about delving back into English and learning a broader range of writing skills that will be valuable throughout the remainder of college and later in my professional career.
My biggest concern with taking this course is having the time to dedicate to it. Time management will be key for me. I don't think its at all impossible and I am going to try my best.
