Major:
Arts Management
and Music
Hometown:
Denmark, WI
Extracurricular/Campus Activities:
I am part of the Gender Equality
Advocates, and I also like to play in the
Wind Ensemble and
Orchestra.
Why did you
choose to attend UWSP?
It was the perfect distance from home, and UWSP had great
Theater & Music Programs.
Do you have a job?
Several. I am the Job Fair Coordinator for the campus
Student Involvement & Employment Office, Production
Assistant for the
Performing Arts Series Education and an Education
Facilitator at the Central Wisconsin Children’s Museum.
Favorite Place on Campus:
The Noel Fine Arts Center.
There’s always a concert or show going on! I also like
studying in the
Women’s Resource Center.
They have comfy couches.
What do you like most about going to
UWSP?
There are just the right number of students here.
I’m always meeting new people, but still running into old
classmates, too. Also, professors have given me the
one-on-one attention that I need.
My advisor specifically has taken the time to sit down
and talk to me over lunch, or worked with me on special
projects.
What do you like best about the Stevens Point community?
I love all the green parks.
There are a lot of great places to take walks.
What are your career goals?
I hope to work in arts outreach,
bringing the arts to people who don’t normally have access to
them. I would also
like to plan events.
How has UWSP prepared you for your future?
I attended an arts conference on scholarship last
September, where I met arts professionals from all over the
Midwest. I made a
lot of connections and was offered several internships, too.
I have had two different arts internships while in school, and
will have another full-time internship this summer.
Along with my on-campus employment, special projects, and
extra-curricular involvement, those internships are really going
to make my resume shine after I graduate.
What’s your favorite UWSP memory?
Premiering new pieces of music with the Wind
Ensemble.
What advice would you give to a new UWSP student?
Get out of your room!
I spent way too much time in my room freshman year, and it took
longer for me to make friends that way.
