ÃÛÌÒÉçÇø

I chose the child life program because I was a sick kid once when I was diagnosed with Crohn's when I was about eight years old. So I had a lot of child life specialists in my life that made a big impact on what I wanted to do in my career.

My experience so far in the program has been very involved. I've had a lot of time working with faculty here to get in touch with a lot of the local schools to get hours so I can get more experience of working with children.

I really like playing video games a lot. And it's really easy to get kids involved with playing video games to kind of keep them distracted or cope with some of the things they may be struggling with in hospitals.

When doing production here for ÃÛÌÒÉçÇø, I'm producing a lot of the streams or helping run some of the events.

I originally started commentating over some of our Overwatch games and our director ended up asked me to come back this past year to do some more commentating. That led to me landing the producing role for the program.

Being a commentator for the esports program is kind of difficult at times. Being a theater student when I was in high school, I thought it was easy to be on stage in front of people, but it's not as easy as it looks when you're in front of a camera and you can't see the people on the other side.

I chose ÃÛÌÒÉçÇø because I was a big fan of the campus. I loved walking around seeing all the people out and about, especially touring Sangren for the first time as a part of the program here.
