What inspired you to choose your major?
I have always been an intrusive and morally conscious individual. After taking AP Psych my junior of high school, I fell in love with the subject and found myself using my newfound knowledge on a daily basis when interacting with everyday people. I also aspire to become a divorce attorney, and I feel that a strong background in psychology would drive me to be successful in that field.
Describe your dream job.
Although I aspire to become a divorce attorney, I would love to be Conan O’Brien’s assistant. He is one of my favorite comedians and I would love to help him manage his daily life.
What is your favorite Aztec memory?
My favorite Aztec memory involves an interview I conducted for KCR with Stealth Ulvang of The Lumineers in front of the turtle pond on Nov. 7, 2015.
What is your personal motto?
“Honest, not modest.” I believe that honesty really is the best policy when communicating with others.
What is something you never leave home without?
I never leave home without bobby pins.
What are you hoping to accomplish in 2016?
I hope to travel more this year. So far, I have plans to travel to Israel, New York City, and Washington, D.C.
