Hey everyone! My name is Sahmya, and I’m an upcoming senior majoring in Marketing with a minor in Digital Media and Design. I’m super passionate about creativity, people, and all things campus life! I love going to campus events, especially sporting events, whether I’m cheering in the stands or just there for the energy and excitement. I’m so excited to show you around and share why this place feels like home to me. Go Big Blue!

Describe your college experience

From day one, I knew I picked the right place. I’ve met the most amazing people—including my absolute best friends—and made memories I’ll be talking about forever. Whether it’s late-night study sessions, campus events, or cheering at games, this place has truly become my second home. I’ve loved every minute of it!

Tip for future students

Join stuff, go to events (free food = instant win), and don’t be afraid to try weird new things—you might accidentally find your people. And remember: no one really has it all figured out—fake it ’til you make it and enjoy the ride. Go Big Blue!” 💙

Favorite class

Oh, and my favorite class was a Communication UK core during freshman year — not only did I learn a ton, but I also made so many great friends right from the start.

Career goals

I’m excited to build a career in beauty or fashion marketing because I love combining creativity with strategy. Helping brands tell their stories and connect with people is what drives me, and I can’t wait to bring fresh ideas to these stylish industries.

Ideal way to spend a free night

On a free night, you’ll probably find me at a campus event, hanging out with friends, or catching a game—there’s always something fun going on!
