Deseiree is a dedicated college student majoring in Social Work and minoring in Deaf Studies, passionate about helping others and creating positive change both in and outside the classroom. In her free time, she enjoys being outdoors, working out, and playing sports—activities that keep her grounded, motivated, and focused. Growing up, Desiree faced significant challenges, spending time in foster care and being raised by a single, disabled mother who cared for five children. With money always tight, celebrations like Christmas and birthdays were often things the family had to go without. Despite these hardships, Desiree has grown into a resilient, determined young adult who has worked hard to be where she is today.
