Who Am I ? I am a Freshman
Telecommunications major with a focus in News Broadcasting from Ball State University. I graduated from
Merrillville High School (Merrillville,
Indiana) in 2002. Since 2nd Grade my family and I have lived in Merrillville
but, before that, I lived in Houston, Texas and Dolton, Illinois. At
home I live with my Dad, Tim (Ideal Box
Company), my Mom, Nancy (Does everything), and my brother, Nick (Merrillville High School Junior).
However, as of next school year I will be living in Castleton, Indiana
(outside of Indianapolis) with my two best friends, Kris Dabu (University of Indianapolis Freshman) and
Brandon Waldrop (Merrillville High
School Senior, soon to be IUPUI student).
I thrive as an individual through the support of my friends.
They make me the person I am, and I owe them for a lot of happiness
I have in my life. Being at college has shown me who I really need in my life.
The people I've been missing day in and day out are the people who I will
always treasure as my true friends. Don't get me wrong, college is a
great experience, but I will never forget the great people that have shaped
me into the person I am. And there isn't a day that passes that I don't
think about that. Whether they're in college miles away or back at
home in Merrillville, they all share equal importance in my life. You
guys know who you are. ; ) If you want to learn more about me

Hobbies / Interests It is well known that I have
been a performer all my life, on one level or another. And I plan on
being one all my life, as I am majoring in Television News. So, my
hobbies revolve around the stage and the camera, in one way or another. Here
are a few links and descriptons of organizations that I have been apart of
throughout my life that have affected me greatly. Take a look!
