Hi everyone, my name is Maya. This is my first year at SIUE as a transfer student. My major is Mass Communications with a concentration in Advertising and Strategic Media (minor still undecided at the moment). Some of my hobbies/ things I enjoy include: reading, collecting vinyl records, watching/keeping up with shows and movies (my favorite reality show is Survivor), and doing outdoor activities with my family (we’re all also pretty competitive when it comes to Nintendo Switch games). I have a cat named Luna who is an eight year old Korat (she’s pretty bossy but we love her anyway). I’m very much a homebody so I love being at home, but I would also love to eventually travel to Canada (specifically Prince Edward Island) and maybe later in life, the Cliffs of Moher in Ireland.
