Dependable, polite, kind, loyal, caring, insightful, hardworking, honest and approachable are all the words used to describe me in a survey from three corrections officers, including my employment supervisor, along with four productive adults in custody. All people who watch me in action everyday as I become a better person.
This person I’ve become is not the person who came to prison over six years ago, when I had an argument with my roommate over a bicycle, when my roommates’ friends got upset, they tried to confront me with a knife in the parking lot of the apartment, when I tried to get away from them, one of them tried to run me over with his car, I fired shots into the enigma and windshield. We all knew each other and I’m grateful that nobody was seriously injured.
Setting healthy boundaries, making the right choice in stressful situations in everyday life is very important when communicating with people about your feelings and or intentions. I practice expressing my feelings and emotions every day to make sure I’m accountable for my actions.
I love working on and operating anything with an engine, two wheels or four, manual or automatic. Riding, driving, working, hauling doesn’t matter. I love hands on work or play on the water or on land :)
I love my kids, and I miss them very much, and at times it’s very hard to be an active parent from prison. I’ve lost a lot coming to prison, from death to relationships with loved ones and a lot in between. Cheerleading & baseball firsts, and important growth experiences.
This is my first time in Prison, and I’m determined to make this my last and return to being a productive member of society. While in prison, everything and everyone outside grows without you.
I’m interested in growing in the right direction, making positive connections with new friends to be able to grow with the world outside.
Music is a healthy expression of emotion for me so that I can feel and grow from my past. Here are some songs that I listen and enjoy: Max-Edie Celine: Ed Sheeran-Photograph: Camilla Cabello- Consequences: Morgan Wallen- Love Somebody- One thing at a time, Post Malone- Chemical, I had some help- Nate Smith- Better Boy- Fix what you didn’t break, Scotty McCreery- Five more minutes- it matters to her.
