Meet this week’s campus celebrity Jessica Grahek! Her bubbly and likable personality makes her one of the nicest girls on campus.
Graduation year: May 2015
Year in school: Senior
Hometown: Oskaloosa, Iowa
Major/Minor: public relations/ strategic communications major with a marketing minor
Interests/ Hobbies: I love to cook, spending time with family and friends, exploring new places, being outdoors, and eating of course.
Dream Job: My dream job would be an Event Planner, I love seeing an idea turn into something out of nothing, there is no better feeling than having a successful event.
Plans after graduation: After Graduation I will be moving to Austin Texas with two of my very best friends. Being from small town Iowa it has always been my dream to move out of the midwest to a new city.
Role Model: My biggest role model is my mother of course, I would be absolutely nothing without that woman. She always taught my younger sisters and I to be independent and to go after our dreams. I honestly cannot thank her enough as I am about to enter the real world and be a grown up
Advice to underclassmen: My advice for underclassmen is to get involved in as much as you possibly can, that is one of my biggest regrets as my college career comes to an end, I wish I had taken the time to be more involved in campus activities. Another word of advice, everyone that said college will be the best time of your life was right, cherish every single moment because the time flies by.
Favorite Quote/ Motto: “carpe diem” wake up every morning and seize the day, make every moment worth it.
Three things people don’t know about you: I got to learn how to walk again after I broke both my feet in a car accident, I was enrolled at UNI and decided last minute to come to SAU, knowing no one and it was the best decision I ever made, and I will live by the ocean one day.
