Amanda Bertolozzi

Senior Editor

Strategic Communications (PR) major; Marketing, Multimedia Journalism, and Organizational Leadership minors

Favorite Quote: “Playing dress up begins at age five and never truly ends,” – Kate Spade

Fun fact about yourself: I have one ovary — not sure if that is considered a fun fact, but it sure is a weird one. Oooh, and I will request “Aaron’s Party (Come & Get It)” by Aaron Carter every single time I go out. I’d like to think that’s pretty fun.

Netflix Addiction: Gossip Girl, Bob’s Burgers, Friends, American Horror Story — there are too many to choose from!

Other Campus Involvement: Editor-in-chief of The Buzz newspaper, KALA senior intern, Communications & Marketing Department assistant, and Dance Marathon dancer

Favorite quote: “What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.” — Ralph Waldo Emerson

Victoria Worsfold

Publicity & Marketing Executive

Management & Marketing double major

Go-to coffee order: In all honesty, I maybe drink coffee once or twice a month. I am more of a tea drinker. However, when I do order coffee it’s always a vanilla or mocha latte.

Dream job: A wedding planner at Disney World or Disney Land. However, that’s a FAR stretch so being a wedding planner in a big city would be just as awesome!

Favorite place in the QC: Dunn Brothers Coffee. It is the perfect place to get away from campus and do homework. They have fancy drinks and yummy snacks for super cheap!

Favorite quote: “I was once told not to bite off more than I can chew, but I’d rather choke on greatness than nibble on mediocrity.” – Unknown

Favorite campus secret: The perfect place to study is the top floor of the library in a desk that’s in corner. This is where I tend to get a lot of homework done because there are absolutely no distractions.

Other campus organization involvement: Marketing Club President, Dance Marathon PR/Marketing Committee Chair, New Student Seminar Peer Assistant

P.S. Yes, that is Chris Lane in my picture!
