AbOuT mE :)

Hi Everyone! I just thought I would introduce myself as a new addition to the StARs. I have attended the West Campus of ASU for a little over two and a half years. I am a Criminal Justice Major and a part of the College of Public Programs. I absolutely love being a Criminal Justice major and have enjoyed all of the classes I have taken thus far. I have also been involved on the West Campus as a Devil's Advocate and as a senior CALL mentor. You are probably asking yourself what does a Devil's Advocate or a CALL mentor do? As a Devil's Advocate, I give tours of the campus to upcoming and admitted students. I help with activities and events around campus to encourage students of all ages that it is important to go to college, informing them of the myriad opportunities that are open to them from that experience. As a senior CALL mentor, I work in CALL (Communication Assessment Learning Lab) where I help students with their public speaking skills and all of the different aspects of public speaking, including but not limited to, brainstorming, outlining, preparing, and delivering speeches or presentations. I also help them improve their skills by critiquing them on the many things they did well and where they could use improvement. I really enjoy helping students and giving them the opportunity to feel more confident when they speak inside and outside of their classes.

While I am a full time student at ASU, I also work part time in a law firm. I have worked for this law firm for about three and a half years, since before I graduated from high school. I enjoy every aspect of my job from learning about details of each case to working with clients. I have learned so much about civil law and the preparation and outcomes of these types of cases. If you have any questions about what it is like to work in a law firm or any questions at all feel free to email me at scrable@asu.edu or just comment on my blog.

I am a family-oriented person, enjoying all the times I can spend with each member of my family. Soon, I will be married and I am very excited about what will be in our future together. I figure skated competitively for six years and I loved every moment. I enjoy roller skating, hiking, swimming or just simply relaxing while spending time with family and friends.

Now that you know a little about me, I hope you will enjoy my blogs. I will give you a personal insight of what it is like to be a college student at Arizona State University.

I hope everyone has a fantastic day!
