Why did you want to be an editor for the Rotunda?

When I first got to Longwood I was really homesick and hated it here. My mom told me to get involved. I was standing by the flyer board near the mailroom and I saw a flyer for the Rotunda. I decided to attend a meeting to see what it was like and I was instantly hooked. I wanted to have a bigger role in the production of the Rotunda so I applied to be on board.

To say it simply, news is my passion. It gives me a good excuse to be nosy and creep on people. Just kidding….sort of.

What are your favorite kinds of articles to write?

News, hence the news editor thing. News comes naturally to me. I can’t really explain it. When I get a news article I just know what to do. I have come to love Longwood and I love helping make the campus more aware.

What’s your favorite shirt, and why?

I don’t have a favorite shirt. I did have a favorite sweater that was cream colored, with 3/4 length sleeves. It was drapery, soft and wonderful. I took it off at work a month ago, and I have not seen it since and have not gotten over it.

If NASA built a habitable Moon Base, would you live there?

Umm yes. That would be legit. Would I have to eat that weird freeze-dried ice cream they sell in the gift shop at the Udvar Hazy center? Never had it...never had the courage to actually try it. Maybe this would be my chance.
