Q: Why do you love PRSSA? What do you hope to get out of it?

Q: What committee are you a part of? What have you done with this committee?

Q: Coolest place you’ve ever traveled to?

Q: Favorite social media platform and why?
A: I enjoy browsing Twitter the most because it helps me stay updated on the music industry and other areas of interest. Instagram is a close second because of how addicting it is.
Q: Dream job?
A: I plan on becoming a publicist or manager in the music industry and travel around the world with my client, taking on the trials and tribulations of a career in music.
