Favorite Quote: “What doesn’t kill you only makes you stronger”

What I’ve done: In high school I was a member of almost every club possible. I played tennis and ran cross country. In college, I was on IU rowing crew for a year. I have worked for Blondie’s Cookies, Inc. for 2.5 years.

What I am doing: Besides trying to figure out what I want to do with my life after graduation, right now I work for IU Biology Department helping a post-doctoral associate with her research. I am a volunteer for Midwest Pages to Prisoners Project. And of course, I am a proud member of Theta Nu Xi Multicultural Sorority, Inc.!!

What I aspire to do: I am planning on studying abroad somewhere in South America for a semester. I want to become fluent in Spanish some day. Eventually I am planning on going to a Graduate school to pursue a Masters in Public Affairs degree.
