Sarah Thayne

I am 20 I live with my mom and my five siblings. I went to college for two years where I studied bakery which I really enjoyed very much. I just recently left college to focus on some volunteer work for more experience. I have been diagnosed with autism and dyslexia. My autism never has stopped me from expressing myself and enjoying new experiences and exploring my interests.
