Mariya Peterson
Project & Portfolio I: Week 1
November 23, 2021

2. My name is Mariya Peterson. I currently live in
Kansas City, KS , which is where I was born and
raised. I have always been a hard worker and was
raised to be one in adulthood. I have had many passions
in my short life (I’m currently 28 years old) but the best
one yet is being a mother to my six year old daughter. I
decided to go back to school to be a good example for
her. My goal is to show her that no matter how long it
takes anyone can finish college and have a very
successful life afterwards.
