The Cal Lutheran Experience

Criminology and Criminal Justice

As a Criminology and Criminal Justice major, I was able to study under compassionate and experienced faculty. I originally wanted to join a federal agency such as the FBI or DHS. Through the faculty mentorship, I was able to find a career in academia that I’m passionate about, be admitted into a graduate program, do meaningful research on police bias and reform, and launch my life into the next step.

Film and Television

I work in both post and field production following and helping define episode story lines. When I am field producing I conduct interviews with the cast, produce scenes, and create story documents that are sent to the network. When I am working in post production, I work with editing technologies to prepare the footage for an editor. I make sure the best footage and moments are used in order to create a television series.

Sports Management

I wanted to be a Sports Management major because I have always loved watching and playing sports. My whole life has revolved around sports, whether it was watching my brother play or when I played. I played softball for 7 years and stopped after high school because I wanted to focus on school and my future. I was able to coach for two years and learned about the behind the scenes of softball. This motivated me to want to learn more about sports management and the different positions behind it. When I graduate, I want to work with Major League baseball, whether it is with a specific team or just MLB in general.
