Sarah Jones, a communications major, discusses future plans and facts about herself. 

What made you decide to join Crowder?

I waitressed one summer and hated it, so I decided to go to college

What is your favorite aspect of the journalism class?

I like being nosy and being rewarded for it.

What are your favorite things to do after class?

I have a cup of tea and either read a book or watch Netflix?

What is your dream career and why?

I would love to be a novelist because the idea of sitting around and making up stories sounds amazing. 

If you were stranded on a desert island, which people would you want to be with and why?

My best friend Megan, my dad because he could figure out a way to get us off the island, and my mom because she’d keep us grounded.

Who or what is your inspiration?

I’m inspired by all the people I’ve read about, like Queen Victoria and Queen Elizabeth. There’s something powerful and ageless about them.

What are your plans after graduating?

I’d like to get a job in a P.R. field. I’d like to work for a big company or a political leader, making sure their message is accurate and correctly delivered. 

What are some unusual skills you have?

I play the violin, I know a little bit of ASL, and it’s in no way a skill, but I’m double jointed and can walk backwards on my feet.

If you could live in a fictional universe, what would it be and why?

I would love to live in the Animal Crossing universe. Everything is chill and calm, and you can solve problems by picking fruit. 

What is your biggest pet peeve? 

I really do not like when a TV show or movie has horrible writing.
