Odyssey has shaped my life, but it's definitely not the only thing that has shaped my life. I do have some pretty awesome facts about me that I think you should know.
1. I interned at Harvard this summer.
I interned as a resident assistant for Harvard's pre-college program. It's been one of the greatest experiences of my life, and it was my first time on the East Coast, so obviously the first thing I did was eat a lobster roll and have a Boston cream pie.
2. Dr. Seuss and I share the same birthday.
March 2 is definitely a day to remember. Throughout elementary school, we would always celebrate Dr. Seuss' birthday and eat green eggs and ham, but I would always wonder why no one was saying happy birthday to me!
3. I am a gold card member at Starbucks.
I mean this honestly, I really love Starbucks, and I am a gold card member. I gotta have my venti iced coffee, or I can't function.
4. I am in two honor societies on campus.
I am a proud member of Omicron Delta Kappa, which is the National Leadership Honor Society and Alpha Psi Omega, which is the National Theatre Honor Society.
5. My favorite Disney Movie is Hunchback of Notre Dame.
It is the perfect balance of light and dark themes. It is also one of my favorite musicals that I've seen, every time I watch the Disney movie or see the show, it just continues to get better.
6. My favorite musical is "The Last 5 Years"
"The Last 5 Years" tells the story of Cathy and Jamie and their relationship over five years, Cathy in reverse chronological order while Jamie in forward chronological order. It is an amazing blend of art, music and storytelling.
7. Hershey's cookies and cream candy bars are everything.
I could eat them all day, and be completely content with all life.
8. "How I Met Your Mother" is the No. 1 TV show.
Yellow umbrellas, self-fives and Canada. All three are just some of the insiders that encompass "How I Met Your Mother."
9. I want to be a high school theater teacher.
If you know me, you know that I want to be a theater teacher in the future. Just the art of actually teaching others about the arts and making an impact on the community and the education field is just aspiring to me.
10. I've been with the Odyssey for over a year.
OK, I know I said other than Odyssey, but, believe it or not, I have stuck with the Odyssey as a writer and social media director for over one year, which is a huge deal. I was one of the first writers hired back in July 2015 in my chapter at the University of Nevada, Reno. I feel like I'm finally sitting at the Thanksgiving table with my Odyssey fam, and that's a place I intend to be for a while and watch our family grow.
