ABOUT Amanda
University of Tampa, Sophomore
MY COLLEGE KICKS ASS BECAUSE…
I love my college because we live where others would go to Spring Break, and we still get our work done. You can’t walk five feet without seeing an attractive individual, and they’re probably fun and smart too. Basically, we’re awesome. Plus, we’re home to Gasparilla, a.k.a. city-wide madness all day and all night.
I MAJOR IN…
My major is psychology with pre-med. I hope to become a neuro-clinical psychotherapist, specifically working to improve the quality of life for veterans.
OH YEAH, AND YOU SHOULD PROBABLY KNOW THAT…
I’m not your average girl. I can hang with the boys, get crazy with the girls, kick your ass, and totally stupify someone with how intelligent I can be.
AT SCHOOL, I’M INVOLVED IN…
I’m not too involved on campus, but I hope to join an honors society for psychology majors. I’m doing lab research on mood and anxiety disorders in the fall. I’m also a super fitness freak and yogi.
IF YOU COULD TRAVEL ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD, WHERE WOULD YOU GO?
If I could go anywhere, I would go to Bora Bora because it’s absolutely beautiful, and I’m a mermaid at heart.
WHY DO YOU WANT TO BE MISS COED 2016?
I would absolutely love to be Miss COED 2016 because, first of all, COED is awesome, and I want to show people that being different from the crowd can be beautiful too. It would be a great platform for me to be an advocate for social change.
IF YOU COULD GIVE OUR READERS ONE PIECE OF ADVICE, WHAT WOULD IT BE?
Do what makes you happy, and always be true to your heart. The self that you see is perfect just the way it is.
