20 – Arizona
What Are You Most Passionate About?
I am most passionate about learning – whether that be through school, travel, reading, or listening to TEDtalks online. I have always loved going to school since the first day I went; I was never the kid that cried when I went to school alone or cried because school was starting again. Shopping for school supplies is practically a hobby for me. I am a junior at Arizona State University studying Supply Chain Management and hopefully starting a minor in Sustainability soon. I love both of these fields and how perfectly they intertwine, and I hope to take the knowledge of sustainability to reform supply chain in the future. However, I will likely be a lifelong student -always traveling and earning more degrees and certificates just because I crave to know more.
Who Is Your Hero? Why?
I would have to say that the tattoo artist, Kat Von D, is my hero. She first started on a TV show called Miami Ink a long time ago, and at that age, I had never seen a woman tattoo artist, let alone one so talented, or a woman covered in tattoos.
What Is Your Favorite Sound?
The piano. I do not know how to play myself, but it is a dream of mine to learn. The ‘solo piano’ playlist on Pandora is my favorite. It’s so peaceful.
What Languages do you speak?
English.
What is your Profession?
Student.
What Kind of Laptop Did you Donate?
