Laramie Riggs may just look like a gorgeous blond with fabulous long legs, but in fact there is a lot more to her! She loves being active and spending time outdoors year around. She works hard in school and is involved with several organizations. Laramie (sounds just like the Wyoming city!) is also a service queen! She helps integrate students from West High with the U community, and is an excellent leader for new freshmen.
 
Name: Laramie Riggs
 
Year: Second year (Junior status)
 
Major: Speech Communication and International Studies
 
Relationship status: Single
 
Fun Fact: I love to hunt/fish/camp/get dirty in the outdoors!
 
Favorite snack: Trail mix
 
Best vacation spot: I am sure there are a bunch of great places out of the country, but I absolutely love Lake Powell!
 
Favorite Study Spot: Coffee Break on 4th South or right in front of the fireplace in the Union lounge.
 
Hobbies: I love sports, outdoor activities, running, reading, and spending time with family.
 
Ideal first date: somewhere outside in the summer time whether that be going on a hike, boating, or fourwheeling. I like dates where you are active and not awkwardly sitting in a movie theatre or something similar.
 
Favorite Utah memory: It is only fitting that my favoite Utah memory ought to involve snow. Every year as a kid, my brother and I would wait until after a big snow storm, and then we would build giant snow forts in our front yard and then have hot chocolate afterwards.
 
If we shuffle your iPod, what will play: Probably Adele! I love her to death!
 
Campus involvement: LEAP peer advisor, Senior Host for HRE office, and desk/mail attendant at the heritage center.
 
Dream Job: Lawyer, where I get to represent people who would not normally be able to recieve representation.

Jetta is a fun and spunky communication student at the University of Utah. She has a lot of energy and an outgoing personality- perfect for her work in service coordination, peer advising, the Department of Communication, Express, and of course HerCampus! Jetta loves social media, writing, and learning new promotion and advertising skills. She does not currently drive a Jetta, but hopefully she can afford one upon completion of her degree!
