Goals and interests
- Career goal
I intend to support, through written and oral communication, a company whose objectives and procedures in serving the public I believe in. To best equip myself I look for opportunities to further my education, sharpen my skills, and gain job experience through internships and jobs that involve public relations.
- Graduate school interests
I may consider grad school either online or at IUPUI after 2016.
- Outside the classroom
My two loves are people and art. The type or form of either seldom matters. I enjoy spending time with friends, old and new, whether playing board games or watching movies. Sometimes my two loves couple together, like when I was able to act with new friends this semester in IUK's production of "Arsenic and Old Lace," or when I constructed a gingerbread village with an old friend. I also enjoy playing and composing music, directing choirs, and painting.
