ALL ABOUT ME

SHANIKA MCCALLUM

Who Am I?

My name is Shanika McCallum, I am

married to Ernest Coppage. We have
four beautiful children:
Isaiah 12
Samaria 8
Emanuel 6
Paris 1
I am currently a Pharmacy Technician
at Pharmerica and I have been
employed there for about 3 years
now.

What are my Strengths?

I have many strengths. Some of my strengths include being a good
listener, family orientated, fast learner, and I always try to find the positive
in the negative. If someone has a problem I am the type of person to try
to help them get out of their situation or try to make their situation better.
I take time out to contribute to my community by helping those less
fortunate than myself. These are just some of many of my strengths.

Where Do I See Myself in 5 Years?

In 5 years I see myself:

As a radiography technician

A homeowner instead of a renter

More financially stable

Having 1 year left for college for my bachelors degree in Applied

Science

Attending my oldest son high school graduation

What Would I Do If I Won The

Lottery?

If I won the lottery there are tons of things I would do. First I get me a
house built from the ground up that can accommodate my growing
family. Then I would buy my mom and grandma a new house. I will
donate money to charities pertaining to children who are artistic,
premature and who have cancer. The reason I will do that is because I
have a premature child who was recently diagnosed with being artistic.
As far as the donation for cancer I believe no child should have to suffer
and it absolutely breaks my heart to see children go through that.

How Have I Solved A Problem in the

Past?

In the past I have solved a problem that involved my family having

reliable transportation. My husband and I were sharing one vehicle and
when that happen our children were forced to end their after school
activities because I had no transportation to pick them up from school.
My husband and I could not afford to add on a car payment so instead I
opened up a savings account he knew nothing about and began to have
a portion of my paycheck (and some of his) directly deposited into this
account. After 5 months we had enough money to purchase another
vehicle with cash and our children were allowed to continue their extra
curricular activities.

What are my Long Term

Objectives?

Having my new home paid off

Watching all my children graduate college

Getting out of debt

Pay off the remaining balance on my car

Save enough money to buy a larger vehicle
