ABOUT Sheridan
University of Colorado – Boulder, Sophomore
I love my college because…
it has one of the top programs for my major, but also because the campus is absolutely beautiful! Boulder is better than the rest because everyday walking to class I get to see the beautiful flatirons. I can also experience every season in one week and the campus is constantly crawling with dogs. Overall CU is a beautiful and fun environment to live in.
I really hate when…
people underestimate me. Being a cheerleader for CU and being a girl I tend to get stereotyped a lot. I hate when people assume I need help or need to be explained things just because of outer appearances.
I major in…
Aerospace Engineering. Ever since I was little I’ve been in love and fascinated with outer space. In high school I excelled in math and science and my dream has always been to become an astronaut so when it came time to choose a major Aerospace Engineering was a no brainer.
At school, you can find me…
cheerleading for the University of Colorado, which takes up most of my free time. Between that and engineering, I don’t have much time for anything else.
The coolest class I’ve taken so far is…
Gateway to Space. It was a freshman projects class where we designed and built a small cube satellite and later launched it to 90,000ft! The best part was the pictures we ended up getting!
My ideal first date would be…
something outdoors and adventurous like a hike or cliff jumping! I love being active and I love exploring so if a guy took me on an adventure that would be a definite “yes” for a second date. I want someone who can keep up with my active lifestyle and isn’t afraid to try new things.
My favorite late night study snack is definitely…
two words. Half. Baked. I literally eat this stuff by the pint. Nothing helps keep me awake like the sugar of ice cream, not to mention it’s DELICIOUS! I literally could not survive without half baked.
If I could change one thing about the world, it would be…
all of the pain. There’s too much pain in this world. I hate looking at the news and hears of another terrorist attack, or school shooting, or neighborhood murder. It needs to stop. Nothing will ever be perfect and that’s ok but I just wish there wasn’t as much pain.
I’m going to be Miss COED 2017 because…
I want people to see that you don’t have to be just one thing. You can be a cheerleader and be smart. You can be a girl and do engineering. You don’t have to limit yourself because of what society says. I want to inspire others to believe that you can do anything you set your mind to.
