HC: What are you future plans with your major?
DD: After i finish my undergrad at UNF, I plan to go on to PA school.
 
HC: Who is your role model?
DD: Definitely my mom. She instilled my core values into me a very young age. Always taught me to remain focused, humble, and appreciative. She also taught me that there is only one acceptable way to do things and that is at 100% effort.
 
HC: How excited are you for March Madness?
DD: I am beyond excited to be a part of March Madness. It has always been a dream of mine.

HC: How has your family supported you through your college life and basketball?
DD: My family has excelled at being a more than sufficient support team. They are always there to give encouraging words after a loss and when they have the chance to make it to a game they never hesitate.

My name is Maya Dartiguenave, and I am a senior at the University of North Florida. I'm a communications major, with a focus in public relations. Reading, writing, anything to do with words is what holds my true interest, which is why I'm so happy to be a part of Her Campus! I'm so excited to have started UNF's chapter of Her Campus!While I claim to be a Florida girl for now, my heart belongs to Philadelphia, always. (Go, Eagles!) I hope to move away from Florida after graduation, work my way through grad school, and begin my career in publishing. The future is definitely going to be an adventure, and I can't wait for it!
