Profile: Tatum West ’19

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

Tatum West is this week’s profile feature! What does this girl not do? Not only is she involved in basically every student activity offered at Tulane, but she slays the academic game all while rocking a killer lipstick shade. Jealous?! You know I am…

Hometown: Newport Beach, CA

Age: 18

You know it’s been a great Bruff when… you make a bowl that is Finstaworthy. I’m low key obsessed with Bruff and love to make dank kale bowls. Microwave is the key to a good Bruff.

Favorite Tulane Memory Thus Far? Apart from seeing James Carville running and following him for about a quarter mile (poli-sci nerd, sorry ‘bout it), I’d have to say Southern Decadence this year. It was pouring rain and everyone was dancing in the street and jumping on cars trying to pass through Bourbon.

Who is your female #GOALZ? Anyone that knows me knows that I absolutely LOVE the Today Show and SNL. I reference SNL about 85 times a day and have basically memorized all of the Wikipedia pages of Today Show anchors. That being said, I really look up to Savannah Guthrie and Hoda Kotb as well as Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. They are all fabulous, smart, and powerful women who have made strives in their respective industries and I hope to live just as fiercely.

If you could tell President Fittz one joke, what would it be? Oh goodness. Probably something along the lines of “Fitts out for Harambe!” since I am the producer of roughly 7% of the world’s worst puns. #FittsOutForHarambe

Best NOLA day: Probably sitting on a patio at a restaurant with some pals, taking my sweet time. Lately, I’ve been a fan of Chais Delachaise. Great patio. Great fries. Also, you can never go wrong with a day at the Fly.

Modern-Day Buddha.
