Me	Not me

 

Hometown: Fishers, Indiana

Childhood ambition: Actress/singer/musician/cowgirl/artist. In outer space. I basically wanted to do it all.

Favorite spot on campus: Holcomb Gardens! I love relaxing down there by having picnics, listening to concerts, and having photo shoots down among the flowers.

Most memorable Butler art experience: Creating a shelter out of solely newspaper, trash bags, and duct tape in the lobby of Lily Hall. Then I had to quickly walk it across campus before a (predicted) tornado-strength storm.

Favorite vegetable: Being a vegan means that I am an equal opportunity veggie eater. To pick one vegetable as my favorite would feel like cheating on all the rest of them.

Favorite internship experience: Traveling to Winchester, IN for my internship with Indiana Humanities. The town (which is the sugar cream pie capitol of the country) was hosting a traveling exhibit during a food festival called JuneFest. I spent the day taking pictures and video, and even judging a sugar cream pie contest. The people in the people were so welcoming, and I got some great pictures! It was so fun representing Indiana Humanities and meeting new people!
