Sioux Falls
Summary
I grew up in a creative farm home of five surrounded by enrollments in all kinds of sports and activities. I’ve always been a very social person and enjoy the environment of getting to communicate with others and help out in my day to day. I look for places that give me goals to achieve and a new place to learn life skills.
