Age: 24
Current year/grade: Junior
Expected graduating year: Spring 2012
Major: Journalism with a concentration in news reporting and writing
A few interesting things you’d like to share about yourself: I took 16 years of dance classes before stopping after high school. It’s probably still my greatest passion behind writing. Nothing like being on stage. I’m an avid reader. Some of my favorites are J.D. Salinger, Kurt Vonnegut and Tom Robbins. I’m also disgustingly obsessed with The Beatles and John Lennon, and although I have a horrible singing voice, you can frequently find me belting out their tunes.
Zodiac sign: Leo
Favorite color: Any hue of pink.
Favorite food: I like ethnic foods. I love anything with hummus.
Biggest pet peeve: Slow walkers and ignorant close-minded people.
Favorite song at the moment: “Home” by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros
Favorite place to shop: Urban Outfitters if I were richer. Forever 21 is amazing though and fits way better into my budget.
What you like/don’t like about Columbia: I love the teachers here. They are all so passionate about their field of study, and I haven’t had a class yet where the professor treats the student as anything but equals.
