How has your major contributed to your professional or personal development?
Being a journalism major has made me a better writer, communicator, and thinker. It has taught me to enjoy confrontation and pushed me outside my comfort zone when pursuing sources. My history minor has taught me to think critically and to challenge preconceived notions. I have learned to question all things and to always stay curious and diligent.
What has been your proudest or most significant accomplishment during your Gonzaga career?
WCC Freshman Team, starter past 2 years, top beep test score in program history. 4.0 so far. Graduating high school early and starting college a semester early was extremely hard, but I did it.
