Alyssa Vandiver - Intro

My name is Alyssa Vandiver. I was born and raised in Boonville, MO. I moved to the Lake of the Ozarks at age nine and have lived there since. I attended Camdenton High School. I played volleyball and soccer in high school. I graduated in 2012 with a class of 306. I work two jobs currently. I just recently got a new job serving at a restaurant in Springfield and I’m also a server at a Mexican restaurant called Mexicali Blues back at the lake. I moved to Springfield in the beginning of August. I like Springfield because there's always something to do, but I'd way rather be in a small town. When I'm not working or going to school I like to spend time with my friends and family. I'm really close with my family. I have a younger brother who I'm pretty close with. I also have a chocolate lab who's my baby. I spend a lot of time with my brother and his friends just goofing off around town. Camdenton is a pretty small town with nothing to do but hangout in the Walmart parking lot but we always end up finding something fun to do anyway. During spring, summer and fall I love riding horses. I go trail riding as often as I can. I like to be outside and love to go floating and boating. I also spend a lot of time on our family farm in Houston, MO. In the future I would love to become a registered nurse and work in obstetrics, but now I'm kind of thinking about going to in criminal justice or becoming a special education teacher.
