This paper would like to recognize the effort Ms. Hailey made to willingly drive an hour from her initial residence (Chattanooga) to Knoxville to have this meeting in person instead of simply holding it over the phone, and thank her for such opportunity to do so.

I believe setbacks in your life don't define you as a person nor stop you from obtaining your goals. Have you ever wanted something that seemed out of reach? From as early as the age of four I have wanted to play soccer. Over the years my dream has differed and varied but never from the path of playing. When I was in 8th grade I tore my right (ACL) Anterior Cruciate Ligament for the first time. The ACL is one of the four main ligaments located in the knee. As an 8th grader my world was turned…

feedback as I did before. I quit CIGNA in 2011 after I found out I would not be able to apply for another position until I got my review up. Since leaving CIGNA, the longest I stayed at a job was eight months, working various jobs at many companies in Chattanooga.

As a young child, my mother would always encourage me to do my best in school and go beyond what was expected of me. I was not allowed to go outside and play with my friends unless I had finished all of my homework. I could not understand why my mother pushed me so hard, given the fact that she did not complete college. This is not to say that I thought less of my mother, but as her daughter, I wanted to be just like her. Being able to obtain a Bachelor’s degree was the best decision I could…

Wolfgang Mozart mixed with Ne-Yo. Bach blended with the soulful sounds of Adele and soothing cords and progressions of a violin. These are only a few of the characterizations I would use to describe violinist and performer Josh Vietti.
