What is your major? Studio Art - emphasis: painting, minor: ceramics

What do you like most about working in the Cornette Library? My favorite part about working at Cornette Library is that I'm able to be around words. I don't get to be around them much as an art major. It's nice.

What is your favorite book(s)/author? This is always an extremely hard question for me to answer because I enjoy so many authors and so many books. But I am currently reading a collection of short stories by George MacDonald and Crime and Punishment by Dostoyevsky.

What is your favorite local attraction? Palo Duro Canyon

Rules to live by? "Let the Wookie win," and "Never go against a Sicilian when death is on the line."

You might be surprised to know that I: began my college career at Texas Tech intending to get a classics degree (which required me to take 10 hours of Latin my freshman year). So now, a year later, I can still read Latin at a Roman child's level.
