School: Mizzou

Major: Parks, Recreation, and Tourism

Interests: ROLLER DERBY, refereeing roller derby, and quad skates

Favorite meal (restaurant or homemade): My mom’s sweet and sour chicken

Ideal dinner companion and why: Heidi Klum! She’s my girl anyways, but she’s also an incredible woman with a lot of charisma and German heritage!

Dream jobs: Roller derby referee (even though they are all volunteer positions), roving interpreter at a zoo

What five items (gadgets, books, games, etc.) would you pick to endlessly amuse yourself on a desert island (there are electrical outlets there): Quad skates and flat land, stuff to cook with, Texas ties, a copy of Leaves of Grass, and a camera

Biggest perk of being a college student in 2010: Lots of people have gone and graduated before me, so there’s been a lot of time to pass down wisdom.

Biggest downside to being a college student in 2010: Being about to graduate! Federal and state jobs are hard enough to get anyways, but there aren’t any in this job market.
