Hey Y’all!
My name is Mia, and I am a sophomore broadcast journalism
major. This is my first alternative break experience at Maryland, but I went to
New Orleans to build houses the summer after my senior year in high school! I
am entirely too excited for this trip, along with everyone who is a part of it.
I chose this trip as my top choice, because I have always
felt that helping domestic violence victims is a really important issue.
Growing up, my mom always taught me about the issue, so I have always been
interested in helping to fight it. Now that opportunity has been presented to
me, I am excited to learn all about it.
But here’s some stuff about me…
I am a staff writer for HerCampus.com and I cover Men’s
soccer and lacrosse for WMUC Sports Radio on campus. I’m also in CP Scholars,
hailing from the best group there is: Media, Self, and Society. I’m a huge
sports fan, and want to work in the sports industry one day! My favorite teams
are the New Orleans Saints, Detroit Tigers, Maryland Men’s Soccer and Men’s and
Women’s Basketball!
I am easily confused, and love to laugh a lot. I also love
making mixed CDs for my friends! I listen to such a wide range of music, and
love exposing my friends to different artists. I also thoroughly enjoy Twitter,
but do not like using Instagram at all. As the person who will be taking most
of the photos on the trip (I’m into photography, as well!) do not expect to see
collages put together using Instagram, haha!
Well that’s it for now! I am really excited for what the
future holds for our group!
