            Hi, fellow classmates and bloggers. My name is Veronica and I was born in Merrick, Long Island and moved to Greensboro, North Carolina due to my dad's work when I was four. I began dance at the same age and continued till I was 14. Along the way I picked up swimming and I stuck to that until I was introduced to Triathlons. I'm a band nerd and I enjoy exercising as evidenced by the fact that I was Drum Major of my high school marching band for three years and Captain of my high school swim team for two. Sophomore and junior year were instrumental in determining my plan of study for college. I took AP Environmental Science sophomore year and loved it; however, I still wanted to try design, so I went to design camp over the summer and took Drafting I junior year. It didn't take long to realize that was not how I wanted to spend four more years of my education and career, so I stuck with Environmental Science! I never planned on coming to USC. I applied at my dad's request and when I came to visit just for fun, my decision was made. My academic interests include almost anything related to the environment and excludes anything math related. I hope my chosen field of study propels me in the right direction with significant preparation to increase the sustainability and strengthen the security of our country's future, and the future of the world through Sustainability Management or some similar form of work. I hope my future blogs enlighten others as well as myself and that I come to more fully realize my opinions on issues crucial to this course and my major overall.
