I chose Ashli Foster for someone who has been a leader and a role model in my life. I asked her questions about people in her life, her motivations, and her experiences. After interviewing her, I discovered that we have a lot more in common than I knew! It was nice to talk to someone who knew who I could relate to so easily on so many topics. The person who has influenced her the most is her mom, Julia Foster. She raised Ashli and her younger sister Rachel in a single parent home and acted as the mom and dad. She has always been a strong figure in Ashley’s life along with her friends and family. The people her mother has surrounded her with helped mold her into the person that she is today ranging from her likes and dislikes to what she wants to be and do. …show more content…

She also said that her home is a great motivation for her because the people who knew her and took care of her and cared and loved her created this strong bond of support for her.

Good, friendly, outgoing, and interesting people are hard to come by. When you walk into a room and see everyone, who do you choose to sit by, talk to, or hangout with?

Julieta Banuelos is my amazing fifty-year-old aunt that has been through many hardships in her life, but till this day she is the one woman you will always see with a smile on her face. I selected this particular person for this project because throughout my life I have noticed she is the one person I always look up to and turn too when I need advice.

I chose to interview Randy Bedsaul. He is an older gentleman who responds in a genuine manner. Since he works in my maintenance shop and I interact with him on a daily basis it was easy to ask him to do this interview. He responded quickly to my request and even stayed after work one day to help me out. To say I was thrilled would be an understatement. I really appreciate individuals who are willing to go the extra mile to help others in regards to personal/professional growth.
