I’m a marketing student, a member of the Honors Student Leadership Council, and the BYU K-pop Club President! I love learning new skills and picking up various hobbies. I am also a cellist in the BYU Symphony Orchestra. If I ever have free time, there’s a 95% chance I’m sleeping like a rock! To learn more about Elizabeth, click here.

What sparked your interest in your major?
I wanted to make good money but still use my creativity!!

Great value granola bars come in clutch! Also dark chocolate and fruits:)

What are people often surprised to learn about you?
I can make a crow call!

What has been the most significant plot twist in your life?
I wanted to be a cello performance major since sophomore year high school then pivoted to marketing!

What do you do differently than most people?
I don’t go out to eat unless someone invites me (maybe this is normal but idk)

If you could instantly master any skill or talent, what would it be and why?
This changes just about every week because I see someone who’s amazing in their field and wish I could be like them. Right now, it’s dancing, playing the piano, or ice skating (yes, because of the Olympics).

Why did you decide to join the Honors Program?
I wanted more out of my education than class after class and wanted to connect my education to my life outside of college in a meaningful way. It also looks great on the resume as an aspiring businesswoman!

What has been your favorite Honors experience?
For one of my unexpected connections courses, our final day we went hiking in the Provo canyon. It was the best!!!

What is your next step in Honors?
I need to form a thesis committee and get my prospectus approved!
