How did your experience at Hood influence or shape your career today?
My relationships at Hood and my major taught me a lot about the importance of communication theory and how it relates both to work and art.

What made you decide to attend Hood?
It was my mom’s suggestion. She met a young woman who had graduated from Hood. My mother was very impressed with her poise and professionalism and said I should apply.

What is your fondest memory of your time at Hood?
Hanging out with my friends around campus on snow days. Though, no matter what time of year, there was something cozy and reassuring about life at Hood.

Home.

What did you do in the year immediately after graduating?
I traveled—spent a month in South Korea, visited my sister in New Mexico, went to Disney World with my mother and nieces. I continued my college job freelance writing for The Gazette (Frederick). I later picked up another part-time job editing wedding videos.

I have many great memories! But most recently, I published a picture book.
