What’s your role on the Her Campus Clark team?

I’m a contributing writer.

What’s your favorite thing about being a part of Her Campus?

Writing for Her Campus gives me the opportunity to step outside my comfort zone and express my thoughts and feeling to fellow women.

How do you stay calm through finals season?

I enjoy listening to music and drinking tea while studding. Some of my favorite artists are Jack Garret, X Ambassadors, James Bay and Alessia Cara.

What are you most looking forward to over winter break?

I look forward to seeing some of my best friends and doing spontaneous activities. Right now we are planning to see Christmas lights at night in a zoo. I am also excited to be able to sleep in and finally relax. I might even catch up on some reading.

Haley is a student at Clark University studying Management with plans to pursue an MBA. On campus you can find Haley working as an assistant in the President's Office, or dancing (like nobody's watching!) with Clark University Dance Society. Beyond campus she loves her cat, her cousins, and chocolate. Her favorite color is pink, and she could watch The Mindy Project for days. Haley is looking forward to being a part of the Her Campus Clark team!
