Goals and interests

Career goal

After graduating with my bachelor's degree in Communication and specializing in Strategic Com,, I will lean toward working in a company's Communication and Marketing Department.

Graduate school interests

I am undecided about grad school at the moment because I am very intent on focusing on earning my bachelor's degree in the Edward R. Murrow College of Communication here at Washington State University.

Outside the classroom

I love living in an area that has the four seasons because I am lucky enough to have hobbies for any weather. In the winter, I am addicted to snowboarding, snowmobiling, and sledding. During the spring, I read thanks to the rain. In the summertime I go boating, camping, riding ATV's, work, go to the lake, and float the river. During the fall, I love to play volleyball and have fun during the holidays.
