How are you involved on campus?
I've been a part of the Gold Company program for three years now.  I've also been in Cantus Femina (women's choir) for three years. I was an Orientation Student Leader this past summer as well as a Fall Welcome Ambassador for the past two summers. I was in the Theatre for Community Health, "Risky Business" show this year. I am also a member American Choral Directors Association and Nonprofit Leadership Student Association.

When you were 8 years old what did you want to be when you grew up?
I wanted to be an astronaut!

What is your dream job now?
I plan to start a nonprofit vocal jazz ensemble aimed at high school students.

Where is your favorite place on campus?
My favorite place on campus would have to be on Miller Auditorium stage.  I absolutely love performing, especially during the Gold Company Miller show, which will happen February 11, 2012 this school year. It is just a fantastic experience, full of energy, and it's student ran. (And yes, that was a shameless plug.)

What is the weirdest thing we would find inside your fridge?
Well, I wouldn't say anything is overly "weird" in my fridge, although it is kinda weird, I usually buy milk 3 gallons at a time, because I drink milk that much.

If you were an animal what would you be?
If I were an animal, I would probably be a pterodactyl.  They are dinosaurs, so they're rather old-fashioned, and they fly which represents the freedom with which I try and live my life.

What are your three greatest characteristics?
I think my three greatest characteristics would have to be that I am understanding, happy, and passionate.
