Do you have any talents or hobbies? If so, how did you get involved with those particular things/how long have you been involved? Does anyone inspire you?

I beat box! When I was 14 years old, I started watching YouTube videos of people beat boxing and somehow I just caught on. Since then I’ve performed in multiple talent shows. It always shocks people when I start doing it.

 

If you could switch places with a professor for one day who would you choose and why? What would you do?

I would switch places with President Scott just to see what it’s like to run the university. It would definitely be extremely intense but I would love to have all of that power for one day!

 

Favorite quote? Saying? Song lyric? Any motto that you live by?

“Treat others the way you’d like to be treated.”

 

If you could snap your finger and be anywhere in the world within seconds, where would you snap to? & Why?

This might seem pretty weird but I would love to snap my fingers and visit my relatives that have passed away. I just want to have another moment with them and know that they’re okay.

 

Do you have any advice for the other people in your major? In particular the freshman who are just starting out? 

I would tell the freshman to take advantage of all the ensembles and performance opportunities on campus.

 

Three words that your best friend would use to describe you? 

Loud, funny, and outgoing.

 

 

What is your favorite childhood memory/tradition?

 

One of my favorite childhood memories would be when I was in 6th grade and got cast in my first ever musical! I was Bonnie in Anything Goes and it was the most amazing experience because it was the first time that I finally realized I wanted to perform for the rest of my life.

 

Do you have any funny on campus stories or experiences that you’d like to share?

 

The other day I went to see the Women’s Basketball game and I was picked to throw the half-court shot with a chance to win $10,000. Let’s just say, I don’t get embarrassed but that day I did!

 

Three fun facts about yourself that people may not know already.

I’m a black belt in karate.

I had ACL reconstructive surgery.

I beat boxed for Lil Mama when I was 16 years old.
