My name is Sara Young, I live in Weaverville, and I am 17 years old. I have an older brother who is 20 years old, that studied at North Buncombe, and graduated in 2013. He is now an electrician and received his degree from Ab Tech. I go to lake Hartwell in South Carolina, and enjoy spending most of my free time on the water. I have a job at Nike in the Asheville outlet mall. I generally work multiple days each week and all of the weekend. I am graduating early, thus meaning that this is my last semester as a high school student.
I plan on beginning classes at Ab Tech in the spring semester directly following my graduation. I will be taking a nine month optometry class to begin, so that I can get a more serious job, hopefully working full time, while I figure out exactly what I want to do as a career. I want to go further into studying criminal justice, I am just not sure what I want to do as a job, due to the many options of the field. I have already taken 6 criminal justices at North Buncombe through Ab Tech. Being a police officer has always been a realistic dream of mine, I feel that due to my strong respect for authority I could deal with people with a lack of it. I was consumed with the information during the Criminology classes, and I looked forward to going to it everyday. My fantasy dream job, would to be an interior designer or decorator. When I have a house of my own I want to be able to build things on my own to use around the house, rather than having to buy everything. For my project I built a patio chair from wooden pallets. I researched what upcycling is, why it has become more popular, and the economic and environmental benefits. My mentor was Becky Cheek due to her being skilled at doing creative jobs around her home, as I want to be able to due one day. She is not only very skilled, she is also knowledgeable, and has equipment that helped me with my project. |
