Robert Hatch
Major: Spanish Teaching / Localization
Graduation: December 2020

I am from Wyoming. I was born 6 weeks early, and my family jokes that it was because of boredom. I've never let myself be bored since. I consider myself a jack of all trades or a multipotentialite. I love learning and doing all sorts of things. Most recently I've been passionate about storytelling in different formats. I have always enjoyed hiking national parks with my family. The longer the hike, the better. I also love studying languages and cultures. I've studied Spanish and Portuguese so far. I am excited to graduate and make the world a better place.
