| Self-Description |
|
I'm a fun-loving person that enjoys traveling,
watching movies, cooking, and being outside. In high school, I was
involved in a lot of different clubs (pretty much tried out everything).
So, at Purdue, I love that there are so many organizations to try and
find the ones you really enjoy and care about. |

|
Why AGD? |
| I felt comfortable at
AGD. We have such a good variety of ladies because we aren't
afraid to relax, let our guard down, and be ourselves. |

| Favorite
Alpha Gam moment? |
| Hanging out
with the sisters is always a good time. I loved the alpha gam
cup and grand prix week. |
| |
|
| Favorite part of
living in the house |
| The daily
sisterhood is what AGD is all about. Being a part of AGD has
helped me with time management. Through this, I've developed so
much, growing in each aspect of my life. It's so important that
students realize there is more to college than homework and
tests. College is the optimal time to grow socially, physically,
spiritually, and personally... already with my time in AGD, I've
developed countless acquaintances, down-to-earth friendships,
and became a better networker. I've become more involved in
physical activities whether it be working out, competing in intramurals, or participating in a competitive philanthropy
event. I've relied on support systems in our chapter and between
other Greeks to stay strong in faith. I've reevaluated my life,
become more service oriented, and have gotten involved in some
of the best organizations at Purdue. |

|
| If you could go
anywhere, where would you go and why? |
| I have no idea where
I'll end up next. I haven't been on a cruise yet. I'm thinking
about Spain, Greece, Budapest, Moscow, Australia, New Zealand,or
Alaska. |
| |
|
| What do you enjoy
doing? |
| I enjoy exploring,
cooking, hanging out with my two brothers, movies, being
outside, and catching up with old friends making memories. |
| |
| What makes you
unique? |
| I say a lot of random
things. |
| |
| Favorite Vacation: |
| Dublin, Prague, Berlin,
Split, Dubrovnik, New Hamburg with my brothers. It was awesome
to travel without my parents and without the drama that I've
experienced on trips with the girls. We saw everything at a
relatively fast pace, never got bored, experienced the culture
as the locals do, and had a blast with travelers from Australia,
England, California, and Canada. It was kind of like the Amazing
Race. |

|
|
Future Goals |
| I want to live overseas
for at least a year or two. I'd like to start a career dealing
with human resources. Marry the man of my dreams. Raise a
family. Retire. Volunteer by building houses with Habitat for
Humanity. |
