My name is Helen Lettieri. I'm a laid back, happy go lucky person with a smile generally glued to my face. I spent my younger years in Brooklyn, but when my Dad retired he moved us to Upstate New York. We're right inbetween New Yorks first capital Kingston and its present capital Albany. I like to call the town of Cairo in The Catskill Mountains home.
I enjoy snowboarding and the snow, and I go to shows whenever I can. I just got a puppy this past spring and am sad he can't live in North Carolina with me. I play soccer for the Women's team here at Wesleyan and consider my teammates my family, they helped me this past year when I was diagonosed with Cancer at the age of 18.
I plan on attending Graduate school in order to become a Physical Therapist. I would love to work in the Oncology field, espeically after everything i've been through. It made me realize how precious life was and the people I choose to have in it. I'm not sure if I want to go back North, stay around in North Carolina or make the big move to California.
To me Kenya is a country in Africa in which I own a shirt with a smiley face on it that read's "Kenya dig it!". My thoughts are mostly an epidemic is occuring in a nation and that education on disease and most importantly the ways it spreads needs to get out to the people. The fact that you also need to take a nations culture into consideration as well, what means one thing in your country could mean something completely different in another.
