Welcome to my webpage! Here you can read a bit about me and see some of my first and second semester work.
In the early morning of December 15, I was born to Jenice McKenzie and Craig Potvin. I grew up with my mom and sister,
right down the road from my grandma and grandpa just outside of Centuria. Family was important growing up. When I wasn’t
with my grandma making cookies, I was with my grandpa, driving in the field or hiking in the woods. My sister would often
babysit me while mom worked any shift she could take, including nights. It was then, in our cozy home, with dinner in our
bellies and snuggled in a blanket after begging to watch Nemo for the hundredth time, that I believe family means
everything. Now, fast forward ten years later, my brother has a family of his own, my sister enrolled in the Air Force lives in
Mississippi, it’s just mom and I at home. What motivates me is providing for my mom. She as a single mom raised me and my sister, and all I want to do is give
back for all she’s done for me. To do so, I have to get good grades, get accepted into a good college, and get a good paying
job. My current plans for the future is to attend Stevens Point for psychology, dealing with counseling, or maybe going into
accounting.
