My Personal Biography

Caylinn Eschenbrenner was born in Dallas, Texas in 1987. While being homeschooled for her first two and one half years of school, she learned how to read by the age of five and was put into public school at the age of seven because of her mother’s health. That summer she moved with her parents to Austin, Texas where she went to Windermere Elementary for third and fourth grade. Pulled out of public school in fifth grade with her four younger siblings, she spent the entire year reading and developing beginner algebra skills.

Eschenbrenner was put back into public school to discover that her father was moving to another job in Portland, Maine. Her mother moved her and her siblings to Maine in the middle of her sixth grade year, uprooting her from another school, and the seven family members spent five weeks in the Residence Inn Hotel Suite. Her parents finally chose a house in Standish, Maine where she attended Bonnie Eagle Middle for her second half of sixth grade and seventh grade.

At that time, her parents were having a lot of marital problems and her mother moved out and filed for divorce. Eschenbrenner was then emotionally in charge of her four younger brothers and sisters. Her mother moved the five children to Windham, Maine at the beginning of her eighth grade year, and then got evicted six months later deciding that it would be a good idea to take a Christmas vacation to Tampa, Florida where she finished out her eighth grade year at Greco Middle.

Caylinn attended Blake Magnet High School as a freshman then transferred to her alma-matter Freedom High. Throughout this time she learned how to play the flute, sing in a chorus as well as a jazz band. Doing marching band for all four years of high school she was drum major her sophomore and junior year and uniform manager her senior year. She received a 75% Bright Futures scholarship to go to college. She earned her Associates in Liberal Arts from Hillsborough Community College, took a semester off, attended DeVry University for a short time and is finally taking classes at University of South Florida with a projected graduation date of December 2010.
