Education
Attended 1 Year : Philosphy, 2006University of Iowa － Iowa City, IA, USI enjoyed my year in Iowa City, had a lot of fun. Unfortunately, I did not graduate. I decided to put college on hold when I learned I was pregnant.
Attended 2 Years : Philosophy, 2005Blackhawk College － Moline, IL, US

I started at Blackhawk and rather than focus on completing my requirements, I chose to take the courses which I was most excited to learn about. Psychology, sociology, philosophy 101, ethics, creative writing, state and local government and logic. At that time I was also working full time as a pharmacy technician so I attended the college part-time. I did not acquire a degree, but I learned more about my interests.
