You are a part of so many major things on campus. What made you decide to get so involved?
“I wanted to make the best out of college and not waste any time. I wanted to get the most experience that I could. I wanted to feel connected to the Framingham State community and give back to all of the people who helped me.”
Who would you say are your greatest role models on campus?
“Ashlee Givins. She is my biggest cheerleader on campus for everything that I do.”
What advice do you have for incoming students?
“Try your hardest to stay on campus the first couple of weekends. Try to get involved. Try doing things out of your comfort zone because you may end up loving it.”
How do you manage your schedule?
“I have a planner and I write down everything in it. When I am here at school, I think of school in general as my full time job. Also, lots and lots and lots of coffee helps.”
What is your dream job?
“It keeps changing, but I want to be an executive director at a nursing home. I have been working at a nursing home for 3 years and it is definitely a life goal. I absolutely love my job back home. I love how it gives me the opportunity to interact with a different age group.”
What do you think will be your next step after college?
“Get a real job. Trying to use all of the skills that I’ve learned from student leadership to find a job and work through graduate school.”
