I am a 21 year old student at Marquette University studying Theatre Arts and Education. I hope to become a drama teacher when I graduate, but that won't be for more than  a year and a half. I grew up here in Milwaukee so I've been here all my life. I enjoy Marquette for the faculty, especially the new faculty in the Theatre department. They are so warm and understanding I feel like I am part of their family just by attending classes. The teachers here at Marquette really care about you and whether you come to their class. They miss you when you are sick. As for myself, I am outgoing, loud and outspoken, and frequently quite funny. I love to make people laugh and will stop at almost nothing to do so. I think my high school teachers provided some crazy but fun examples for me.

My Hobbies include collecting Winnie the Pooh and Nsync memorabilia, making and maintaining websites, drawing, acting, anything creative, playing pool, taking pictures with my digital camera, and swimming. My interests include music (of just about every kind), boybands, the actor Thomas Ian Nicholas, travel, theater (especially stage lighting) and drama literature.

I had the perfect family growing up in Milwaukee. My dad was a Milwaukee Police Seargeant and my mom a social worker. I have one brother, Jonathan, who is three years younger than me. My dad died 3 years ago, and so the 3 of us moved to Greendale, a suburb, into the big white house that we always wanted. I am very close to my mother and brother, which is the main reason why I chose to stay here for college. My friends are a bunch of characters. Since I lived in O'Donnell Hall(all male dorm) my freshman year, most of my friends are male. James and John are a bunch of pranksters but I love em to death. James is a journalism major and John is an Engineering major. Katie is my roommate and best friend on campus, and she is also in the Education program, concentrating on Elementary Education with a French major. Anna is my oldest and dearest friend. She goes to school in Kalamazoo Michigan and is currently studying abroad in France, working toward a dual major in French and Political Science.
