Gracie Roberts

Born October 9 in Portland, Oregon, I have grown up as a creative and goal-driven individual. I began playing the piano at age six, a hobby that followed me all the way throughout high school and into college. Pursuing my childhood dreams of becoming a concert pianist, I entered into the University of Oregon as a music performance major. I discovered the excellent journalism program at UO, however, and I quickly gravitated toward majors in public relations and advertising. Now a junior, I am a dedicated student of the School of Journalism and Communications. I like to keep busy in my daily endeavors, whether they are inside or outside of my studies. In my free time, I enjoy listening to quality music, creating content in Photoshop, reading a good novel, and spending time with my kitty, Aya.
