These are 3 common traits about curious people: They ask a lot of questions, they listen without judgment, and they are willing to be wrong. I would not have gotten to this point in my life if I didn't follow these at some point.My craving to know more has always been a driving force to work hard and achieve my goals. Since a young age, I have always been curious about the proponents of my life- and have always been asking questions about them. Whether it be school, volunteering, government; I asked questions because I knew they had a big role in my life. More importantly, I wanted to know what they all meant to me personally. I found that the best way to overcome this curiosity was to involve myself in these types of things. When I finally left home for the first time, I chose to pursue my dream of going to acting school in New York City. I felt that this experience would be something which I felt I could fully immerse myself and attach every aspect of my growth into. Fast forward a couple years and now I'm here. I have mindfully invested myself in multiple different groups and projects during my time at VCU. Not everything has worked out 100% how I envisioned- and that's okay. I've been wrong about things but it wasn't the end of it all. At the end of the day, everything has been a process to learn from. What has helped me excel in classes and projects wasn't giving it an expectation of excellence or what I have initially brought to it. But by bringing creative effort and my best effort. And I'm curious to see what's to come from it all.
