adventurer. dreamer. actress at heart. passionate writer. practicing photographer. ambitious student.
adventurer I am a young college student who will not submit to boredom. To avoid monotonous weekends and lazy afternoons I explore what’s around me, discovering one-of-a-kind places that ensure adventure. When an opportunity for an adventure arises I jump at the opportunity. Whether it be exploring the city or climbing into a tank with penguins, I value the adventures that I am blessed to experience. Even when the adventure turns out to be a “mis-adventure,� despite the circumstances, I will still find a reason to be joyful.
Summer 2010: I was privileged with the opportunity to work as the Marketing/PR intern for the Tulsa Zoo. Daily responsibilities included creating calendars, managing media, participating in market research, writing press releases and feature stories and, on occasion, keeping the penguins company.
dreamer
I believe there are endless opportunities to grow, excel and achieve.
Each day I wake up with a different dreamdreams of making a difference, bringing joy and living life to its absolute fullest.
No matter which dream I choose to pursue, I can promise that I will work my hardest to ensure that the dream becomes a reality that will benefit others.
I reach for the stars and live with a servant's heart.
I strive to be the best I can possibly be, working diligently and passionately at whatever I do.
What exactly that will be, I am not 100 percent sure. I want to serve where I am needed and where that may be has the potential to transform.
At the moment I am learning the art of public relations at Oklahoma State University, but I will not limit myself there. I love to learn, and I love to grow. Photography, event planning, acting, teaching, writing, giving and innovating are all interests of mine that shape who I am becoming.
