My name is Amanda Hochmuth and I’m a Journalism and Mass Communications major (and hopefully a Legal Studies minor) at SJSU. After three years of community college, I am now beginning my second semester at SJSU. I do not have a specific, detailed vision of my future career, but I do know that communication – specifically writing – is a strength of mine. Aside from writing, I also enjoy singing, art, travelling, and outdoor activities. When I’m not in class, I'm working as a server at a restaurant/brewery and currently saving up for a Spring Break trip to Spain to visit my best friend during her semester abroad. I also sing in my church's worship band and am involved in many extracurricular activities. I come from a large family and there is always something going on! My life consists of juggling a very hectic schedule, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. I am making an effort to put school at the top of my priority list and perform to the absolute best of my abilities. I am driven, motivated, goal-oriented, and not afraid to work hard. This class has been said to intimidate some students, but I'm excited and looking forward to improving and expanding my writing abilities. I think this class will be a good experience for me.
