=About Poppyseed= I go to school at the University of MN in Minneapolis, and live in Uptown Minneapolis. I'm currently taking a Technical and Professional Writing course in an effort to learn more about writing and using technology in the workplace setting. I find everything regarding writing fascinating and am learning so much already. I plan to pursue a masters degree in public health and nursing. I also have a Yorkipoo named Gracie who is the best dog in the world.

=Interests= Love to run and travel. I train for marathons year round and am currently getting ready for a Duathlon in September. Minneapolis is one of my favorite cities in the US and living in this cold chilly environment makes me feel a bit stronger than those who choose to never live here because of the "unbearable cold".

=Work Experience= I have a lot of experience working with the vulnerable adult population. I love working with individuals who are going through tough times and helping them get back on their feet. I have an interest in the HIV/AIDS epidemic as it is the biggest epidemic facing my generation and the majority of the population are way too under-educated about such a serious issue. I have experience volunteering and working with children and adults affected by this terrible disease. To better educate yourself on this powerful epidemic, click on the link.
