Comments:

I lived in Rapid City for about 6 years, from 1998-2004. While I lived there, I worked a few different jobs, and slowly attempted to get some college education. When I moved home in 2004, I worked a couple other jobs for about 2 years. In 2006, I started working as a wildland firefighter as a way of getting myself to art school in Santa Fe, NM. I started school at the Institute of American Indian Arts in Santa Fe in the Spring of 2007. Since then, I have continued to return to IAIA. I am working towards a bachelor's degree in Fine Arts, and I'm focusing on Jewelry Making, working with metals. Right now I am in my 6th semester at IAIA and I still have about 2 more years to go, not sure what I'll do when I'm done..........."and that's the truth, plplpplplplplplplpl"....

Best memory in high school

Hmmm.....too many good ones to narrow it down to one!! I can't recall any right now but I know there was lots.
