Something I wish students knew about majors is…
Picking a major is about finding a good fit for now, not the perfect fit forever. It is one of many decisions that you will get to make during your career. As your life unfolds, your values, skills, interests, and options will also change and you will have the opportunity to make new decisions that shape your future.
Interests and hobbies:
Gardening! Between May and September you can almost always find me outside in my yard. I love to create beauty and use my creativity with no boundaries!
I also lift weights and can plank for 4-5 minutes. My favorite book is The Giver of Stars and I love listening to the podcast, Office Ladies. I also can quote most lines of Parks & Recreation. Someday I want to visit the estate where they filmed Downton Abbey, another favorite show.
