Colleen is majoring in Journalism and minoring in Political Science at the University of Central Florida. Along with being a staff writer for Her Campus, she volunteers with the Young Women's Leadership Program, or YWLP. When Colleen isn't volunteering or writing, she is attempting to keep her plants alive. She claims that if she weren't looking for a writing career, she would try out being a florist. Her first inspiration to pursue journalism was none other than the quirky reporter Keely Teslow, from Disney Channel's Phil of the Future. What has continued to inspire Colleen to continue on in a journalism career is her constant curiosity and passion for writing about life.
