Hello My name is Kyndall Rae and I'm 19 years old. I'm from a small town called Trinity 30 minutes away from Huntsville where Sam Houston State University home of the Bearkats. Trinity is a place where everyone knows everyone, people can walk to their grandparents, aunts or uncles and where your teammates are basically family. It's a very quiet and relaxing place where if you wanted to get away you can. Trinity also has a lot of grave yards which some date back to the 1800's I've personal seen one that said 1832 on it. There are also deer’s everywhere coming out of nowhere at night even during the day while you are driving. Most of the time they just run everywhere.

I'm my Granny's favorite child even though she didn't have me. I'm my biological dad’s third kid, my mom’s first kid and my stepdad’s oldest which makes it hard to find my sibling role. My stepdad’s family is very funny just because everyone does different things career wise one minute were talking about blood samples to talking about hair products. My granny, aunt and stepdad are my rocks and keep me in my right mind when I feel like everything seems to be falling apart. My Granny is basically my mother I’ve lived with her and my aunt since I was nine-years-old and it’s not the easiest thing in the world but we love each other so it will never be easy .

My current goals are to transfer to Sam Houston State University to major in Nursing and join their powerlifting team. Nursing is very important to me because of my family being involved in the medical field and teaching me different aspects of medicine. As a child I was sick very often and being helped by medical professionals inspired me to pursue nursing and help others the same way I was helped. I believe Sam Houston State University is a perfect fit for me because of their excellent nursing program and their award-winning powerlifting team. SHSU combines both my passions which is the best environment for me to accomplish my goals.

Some of my favorite hobbies are swimming , dancing and cooking each one is something I would do with family so those hobbies are very special for me . Swimming is one thing we must learn when we are little because when we are older we won’t want to learn as my granny has told me . She never learned how to swim given the year she was born and she didn’t want the same for her children so we all learned . Our family trips to the pool would be so much fun we’d all try and go to the deep end knowing we couldn’t really swim but it was ok cause we were together. Cooking is a big in my family were always eating or at least I am . Learning how to cook starts at a young age cause depending on what day it was granny did not want to cook so by watching her I would pick up on it and when she was happy granny would play music . Dancing is the mean thing we at big family events cause we just love it .
