Ashely Bernhardt ’14

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Purchase chapter.


1. Hometown: 
Bethpage, Long Island

2. Year and Major: Sophomore, Creative Writing

3. When I was little I wanted to be…a dolphin trainer slash rock star

4. Favorite Band/Artist: Counting Crows

5. In a partner, I look for… manliness. Someone who is laidback and playful. If you can make me laugh
you’re golden and if you’re David Beckham that’s a plus.

6. Bet you didn’t know… that the human head weighs eight pounds.

7. My favorite part of Purchase…is the people. They are generally friendly here.

8. Hub, D-Hall, or Terra Ve? Hub without question

9. Outside of class, I like to… fight crime, stake a few vampires, and hunt down some zombies. You know, saving the world.

10. What’s your favorite Thanksgiving food? Stuffing, gotta love those carbs.

Christie is a sophomore journalism major at Purchase College in NY, but she’s a Jersey Girl at heart. When she isn’t studying (or being sarcastic), she spends her summers selling crafty jewelry on Long Beach Island and making coffee for her superiors at Parker and Partner’s Marketing Resources. She’s a sucker for debates, sushi, and a really good book. Her dream job (this week) would be at the Village Voice, but she’d be happy with a byline and paycheck. She hopes to make HerCampus bigger and better than ever at Purchase and is excited for the chance to work with these lovely HC ladies.
