My name is Maya and I’m a high school senior from the Washington, DC metropolitan area. I’m trying to navigate my last year of high school while applying to college, earning my personal trainer’s license, and starting this blog.
The purpose of this blog is to share my life experiences, advice, and to follow in the footsteps of my mom as well. She often wrote about my sister and me when we were younger. Her blog is ohsocrazy.com.
I’ve spent the past six months applying to tons of colleges. It has been a very stressful process and I want to share my mistakes and guide future students. As a first-generation college student, I have a lot of valuable information and resources I’ve gathered over the past year that I would like to impart to other families.
In my sophomore year of high school, I started taking a 2-year personal fitness class where I would have the option to study and earn my personal trainer’s certification in the spring of my senior year (and all for free!). I want to share how beneficial my program was and if I recommend it as a possible career or side hustle. Also, how I deal with self-esteem in the fitness industry.
In college, I plan on studying marketing with a minor in Spanish. I hope to have a job in fashion, beauty, or aviation.
Thanks for sticking around!
