Remember when Maroon 5 came to Pittsburgh in March? Most do and most Point Park students remember sophomore, Angela Thomas famously getting a picture and meeting the sexy lead singer, Adam Levine. The picture went viral and was even posted on Point Park’s social media sites! The Sports, Arts, and Entertainment management major has been attending concerts and meeting celebrities her whole life and shows no signs of stopping either. You want to meet Nick Joans? She has done that multiple times. What about Britney Spears’ sister and Zoey 101 star, Jamie Lynn Spears? Yep, Angela has met her too. Angela has been to over 150 concerts and has met countless celebrities. It is her passion and is the reason she choose Sports, Arts, and Entertainment management as her major.  Angela also lights up Point Park University’s campus with her warming smile, great fashion sense and determination to be a successful student. Angela, Point Park loves you.

HC: What do you hope to get out of your major, Sports, Arts and Entertainment Management?
