Hobbies / Activities

 

A lot of my life revolves around music.  I play the flute as well as taiko.  I also love dancing, especially Swing, Lindy Hop and Salsa.  Outside of music, I enjoy reading and crocheting.  I tend to spend a lot of time attending Civil War Reenactments, museums and exploring historical sites.  Finally, I really enjoy doing community service and working with my co-ed fraternity, Alpha Phi Omega.

 

Why Did You Attend SJSU?

 

Attending SJSU was primarily due to a gut-feeling that was triggered most by its location and activity.  Even without a car, there always seems to be plenty of options for places to go and things to do on R&R from school—museums, shopping, festivals and food.  Also, due to the activity of the campus, there is often no need to venture into the city.  SJSU gave me a wonderful feeling of walking into a very intimate and proud community that I wanted to be a part of.

 

What Is Your Favorite Class At SJSU?

 

My favorite class was Tai Chi.  Although Tai Chi was a class to complete the KIN requirement, it was a welcomed break from the strenuous written work of my other courses.  The environment was very relaxed and it was like being given credit for unwinding.

 

Who Is Your Favorite Professor At SJSU?

 

My two favorite professors at SJSU are Professor Karpf (Anthropology) and Dr. Hilde (History).  They set high standards for their students, teach with a high degree of enthusiasm, which easily rubs off on their students, and celebrate their students’ triumphs.  They are truly inspirational.

 

What Are The Highlights of Your SJSU Experience?

 

One of the greatest highlights of my experience here has been the degree to which I have gotten involved in campus events and organizations.  More specifically it was through becoming a member of Alpha Phi Omega and becoming a Student Ambassador.  I feel that it is through these opportunities that I have been shaped into a stronger person.

 

Who Is Your Hero, Idol or Mentor?

 

I don’t feel as though I’ve found a really strong mentor quite yet, though I’d really like one.  But in terms of a hero, I would have to say that it would be those people of the armed services (past and present).

 

What Are Your Plans For The Future?

 

In the future, I’d really like to work in a museum as a curator, educator, or in preserving artifacts.  Traveling in conjunction with work is an aspiration, specifically to the East Coast and select parts of Europe.
