HC: If you won the lottery, what is the first thing you would do?
AR: if I won the lottery I would first give back to my parents for everything they have given to me so that they could live their life the way they wanted to without worrying about money. Then I would probably donate it evenly to two different organizations: Thinking Beyond Border (TBB) a program I did before coming to F&M in which high school graduates take a trip of a lifetime and learn about environmental and international development while staying in either one country or many depending on the length of the trip and OCEANA, an international organization that focuses on the protection of oceans, an organization that I truly believe in and would like to one day work/intern for.
HC: What did you want to be when you were little?
AR: Honestly, when I was little I wanted to be some kind of animal, just not a human, but as a grew up I thought maybe I wanted to be a vet. I still think I would like to be a vet; the only problem is I am not very good at the sciences required to work in that field. I am awful at biology, and chemistry. However, I am still extremely passionate about the care and support for animals.
