I am a communications major focused on becoming a writer and photojournalist. I have a passion for listening to people’s stories and being able to tell them in an honest and genuine way. It is so common to get caught up talking about our own lives and not listening to others, and I’m excited to show people they are seen and heard in my career. I feel that will be a great way to show people God’s love and meet new people everyday. I was adopted at 14 months and feel blessed beyond measure to have the family I have in America. Asia’s hope and a Helping Hand are two causes that are near to my heart as they were integral in helping my parents adopt me. I am passionate about Jesus, music, photography, hiking, nature, fitness, cooking, soccer, and running. I was a dual athlete in high school and have learned to be disciplined in both sports. I played soccer ages 5-18 and still love it. God comes first in my life, and any deals that would compromise my beliefs would not be accepted.
