Hello! I'm Ginger and I'm a Psychology major and I'm looking forward to graduating this December with my BA. I look forward to helping you all in subjects such as biology, history, arts, reading, writing, general college prep, and enrichment topics among other things. I'm from Tennessee, and in my free time I enjoy playing the Sims 4 or making jewelry.
