Best part of being an Iowa
State student:
The opportunities! Attend our career fairs, join a
few clubs, and go to plays and concerts.
Internship:
I worked for a computer company that makes devices
to help track distribution for companies like FedEx
and UPS.
Dream Job: Working with
Bluetooth and embedded systems. Bluetooth is
a type of wireless network connection that allows
for smooth communications between devices like
PDA's, laptops, and cell phones.
Interviewing:
I interviewed with Microsoft in Seattle. It was a
great 3-day trip! The interview was 1 day, and I
spent the rest of my time checking out the city,
looking for housing, etc.
Fun Fact:
I am the reigning collegiate smooth silver regional
champion in ballroom dance. Smooth is waltz, tango,
and fox trot. This picture was taken before a
competition.
The Ballroom Dance Company meets twice/week.
