Jocelyn is captain of the Oregon cheer and stunt team and holds herself to a high standard as a member of UO Athletics.

What is your dream job?

Stand up comedian. Making people laugh for a living would have to be one of the most rewarding jobs of all times.

Why are you at the UO?

I came to the University of Oregon originally so I could major in product design. I’ve since then changed my major, but I’m still so in love with the atmosphere and our campus. I couldn’t imagine going anywhere else.

How do you want to change the world?

I want to change the world by doing at least one thing a day that betters the environment around me. I believe one small act can lead to another, and then another. I want to be the beginning of the chain reactions that change our world.

What has been the best part of your college experience?

I’d definitely have to say cheering at the Rose Bowl was one of my favorite college experiences. The feeling when we won and everyone rushed the field was amazing, I’ll never forget it.

What are you proud to have been a part of at UO?

I’m very proud to be a part of the school’s cheerleading team and a member of my sorority, Chi Omega. Both programs have taught me so much about myself, and given the opportunity to reach out and help my community. I’m very grateful for the experiences and friendships I’ve made through both of them.

What are some of your goals after you earn your degree?

Once I earn my degree I want to travel. I feel like traveling to new places helps to build a well-rounded person. After that I hope to use all of my experiences and knowledge at a job that I love and that I’m passionate about.
