Graduation date: May 2015
Age: 22
Where are you now since graduating college? As of now, I am searching for jobs! Right when my summer film internship was over, I took a mini vacation to take some time for myself before going right into the work force. It was greatly needed after a stressful year!
Is there anything you regret not doing in college? I regret not getting more involved! During my first year at ASU, I was so overwhelmed by how big the campus was that I focused more on my homework than joining one of the many clubs ASU has to offer. I was happy that I got involved with Her Campus ASU and PAB later on, though!
Funniest college memory? When our CA would scare people in our hall! He would hide in this cardboard box that was left out in the hallway and just pop out of nowhere to scare us. We would fall for it every time.
What did you admire most about ASU? What I admired most about ASU was the School of Film, Dance and Theater’s film program. Even though I have a minor in film through their program, it opened up so many doors and opportunities for me. They also helped me discover my new passion for filmmaking.
What advice do you have for freshman? My advice to freshman is to join clubs/teams that you are interested in, and if ASU doesn’t have one that you like, make one!
Where was your “study spot?” My study spot was at COOR, the tall blue glass building on the Tempe campus. It was the perfect spot for me to study because it was a nice and quiet place to actually get some work done!
Where do you hope to be in 5 years? In 5 years I hope to be living in California crewing on the next summer blockbuster hit! And have my student loans paid off, too. J
