My name is Stella Galik and I am 18 years old. I was born here in Las Vegas. I went to
North West Career and Technical Academy and I was in the Early Childhood Education
program. This is where my love for this profession began to grow. In this program I learned how

Elementary school, and I even graduated as the top student in this program. Being able to do all
of this was so enlightening and proved that I want to continue working in this field. Whether it

schools, and it was extremely hard for me to adjust to the new environment, make new friends,

lasting effect on me. She taught me about the meat industry and influenced me to become

have had an internship, and much more. I would love to help influence a child’s life for the better
and teach them a variety of things. I look forward to learning more about this career so I can
