Why did you choose CSU Stanislaus?
I really like the location of the campus as well as the campus itself.  The faculty and staff are amazing.  They give you a lot of personal attention and all you have to do is ask. It's great!

What advice would you give a prospective student?
Make sure you pick a campus that suits you.  When you do, get involved in the campus life in some way and meet new people.

What has been your favorite academic or student life experience so far?
I love being involved in the theatre department.  I also like taking part in things for the Union Program Board, the Outdoor Adventure Program, and everything else I can get my hands on.  Watching various things on campus like our music productions, plays, and athletics teams are also things I enjoy.  I also liked living on campus.

What is your career objective?
I want to take acting as far as I can go, but I also want to work with youth in the criminal justice system or special education.  It all depends on where life takes me.

What clubs, sports, and activities have you participated in?
I look forward to attending information meetings this year because I haven't joined any clubs yet because I've been so busy. I also look forward to participating in intramural sports if I have the time.

Who is your most influential personal and/or University mentor?
I have to say that being part of the theatre department has been a wonderful experience.  All of the faculty has been really helpful, but I'd say that Drew Sutherland, Jere O'Donnell, and Caroline Mercier have helped me most.  They are really intelligent and will help me any time I need it.  Knowing that someone is interested in helping me as a student and an individual is an awesome feeling!
