This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Simmons chapter.


Name:
Rosendry “Rosy”Gonzalez
Hometown: Bronx, NY
Graduation: May 2011
Major/Minor: International Relations/ Public Policy, Political Science and History
Involvement on Campus: President- Student Government Assoc, Senior Interviewer, Barbara Lee Fellow
Favorite thing about Simmons: I like that we get to enjoy a small, close-knit community, and have Boston as our playground!
One piece of advice you would give the Freshmen class: Take advantage of every opportunity and step out of your comfort zone—“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by things you didn’t do than by ones you did do…”-Mark Twain
Favorite place in Boston: Newbury Street! (Great shopping and the best hair Salons in the country!)
Ideal date:  I’m pretty simple, so just something thoughtful and low key.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years? Hopefully just finishing up law school and working for the federal government in some way
Favorite movie of all time: hmm…this is tough but I’d have to say Elf or any movie with Will Farrell
Random fact about yourself: If it’s not ESPN or CNN, I’m most likely not watching it. I would much rather listen to music than watch TV any day. Music is my escape. I think I learned to dance before I could walk.
