Hi, Profs! Meet Naveen, a senior at Rowan studying early chilhood education with a dual in liberal studies and an international studies concentration. She is 21-years-old and lives in Cherry Hill, NJ.
- Do you have any siblings?I have two sisters and a brother. My sister just got married, so now I also have an amazing brother-in-law.
- What is your dream job?I want to teach first graders and some day make it to principal or superintendent. I love working with kids!
- What’s something you’ve struggled with but has made stronger in the end? I’ve struggled with finding a place to fit in. That’s why I love Rowan so much. From the first day of classes, I knew I had found a place where I could be me. Working at the Rec Center has only helped me with that. My peers and coworkers are like a second family, and I feel like I belong.
- Where can we find you on a Friday night?Friday night is usually family night! It’s the one night a week where my sister, brother, and parents and I are all available at the same time for dinner. We usually have something special and enjoy each other’s company.
- What’s your favorite season and why?My favorite season is Fall because it has the nicest weather. The leaves are beautiful, the air is crisp, and everything feels cozy – even walking outside. The first day of fall also usually coincides with my birthday, and fall is when school is back in session. It’s all in all a very happy time for everyone.
Advice for freshmen as a senior: Get out there and make some memories, because that is what’ll take your college experience to the next level.
