My name is Ayrika; I grew up in Butte, Montana. I plan on graduating from Montana Technological University with a degree in radiologic technologies. After graduating, I want to further my education in sonography or nuclear medicine. I am a first-generation college student. In high school, I was in the National Honor Society and participated in Tennis on varsity, where I was ranked the number one seed for my school. Growing up, I played traveling softball, basketball, and volleyball. I have worked in a local restaurant as a waitress helper since my first year of high school and later moved up to waitress and bartender; I still work at this job through college.
