I am a sophomore Biochemistry major and current member of the Bantovoglio Honors Concentration in the Honors College at Rowan University. I am a Learning Assistant for Chemistry 1 and Chemistry 2 students at Rowan University. At home, I enjoy spending time with my friends and family, and soon hope to become a volunteer for my town’s EMS division. In addition to this, I work as a cook at a local diner and love interacting with the regular guests that come every week.
Being an active member in my home town’s community is something that I cherish, and due to the Imagined Glassboro Mural Project, I am able to become an ever more active member of the Glassboro Community. For this same reason, I volunteer my time as the Community Outreach Advisor for the Glassroots Project, a non-profit organization started by two fellow Rowan Students, Darien Brown and Elizabeth Dunn, in which short documentaries are created to spread awareness about the forgotten histories of towns such as Glassboro. As far as combining my love for helping others with my love for science and chemistry, I am one day hoping to attend medical school so that I may become a doctor.As previously stated, I enjoy being involved in my local community and the Imagined Glassboro Mural Project gave me the chance to do so while away from home and at college. Because of this, I was immediately interested in the project, and something that instantly caught my eye was Glassboro’s rich history of involvement with national politics, specifically with the Glassboro Summit and President’s Lyndon B. Johnson and Ronald Reagan as they relate to the Hollybush Mansion. Shockingly, these decisive moments in national history that occurred right here in Glassboro are rarely discussed. Hopefully, through this project, the viewer will learn of Glassboro’s incredible history in national politics, while garnering a greater appreciation for Glassboro as a whole.
