 Hi everybody! My name is Charlee Horton, I'm 20 years old and this is my second year here at LB. My major is sociology, I had a really difficult time figuring out what my goals were and what I wanted to focus on while going to school. Though I still don't know what I want to do, I have something to focus on. I am from Tillamook, some of you may know that name because you've seen it on cheese or ice cream. I love where I am from, I grew up hiking and going to the beach, its hard not to love such a beautiful place.  Another great thing about Tillamook is that its where all my family is. I'm very family oriented, I have been very fortunate to be able to live ten minutes away from all of my grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins. In my free time I like to read, hike, and listen to music. I love coffee as well, I have worked as a barista for the past three years and have enjoyed every second of it. Photography has always interested me,  when I was a freshmen in high schoo
