How did you become so involved?

I was really interested in a lot of the characteristics in each group or organization. I had always wanted to make a media organization that was fresh and relevant. I started as a DJ on the impact and they basically let me create a position and go out on my own to do Impact Sports. I just liked being able to do what I was doing and help other people at the same time.

Where do you see yourself in 10 years?

I see myself doing what I love. Hopefully I’ll be going to other college campuses and starting other student run college media stations. Maybe I’ll work for a TV station, but who knows.

Fun fact about yourself?

I was a musical theater geek in high school and captain of the basketball team. I’ve played the piano since I was five and love to listen to music in my free time, but I don’t have that much free time anymore.
