The Staff at Academic Enhancement were asked: “When you were young, what did you want to be when you grew up?”
“I wanted to be an astronaut! I fell in love with it after watching Apollo 13, so I decided to join the Air Force as a pilot and then go to NASA and into space!”
-Stephanie Sipp, SPC
“I thought I would be a pediatrician.”
-Kristen Hamilton, SPC“When I was young, I really wanted to be the sports trainer person who runs out on the field when an athlete got hurt. I realized from a very young age that actually playing professional football was out of reach, so I really thought the next best thing would be to be on the sidelines and running onto the field when someone got hurt.”
-Kyle Mullen, EPE 174 Instructor“I wanted to be a world traveler.”
-Eric Weinberg, Technology Coordinator and APP Instructor“I never really had a defined idea; I was more concerned about what I was going to wear the next day at school.”
-Bethany Sharpe, APP Instructor“I think I wanted to be a fire fighter first and then a professional soccer player.”
-Alanna Bouhl, Marketing Intern“When I was young, since actually being a teenage mutant ninja turtle was kind of out of the question, I always wanted to be a professional football player. My dad coached football for years and I always played, it was something I still love to this day.”
-Sy Bridenbaugh, EPE 174 Instructor“I wanted to be a teacher!”
-Penny Robinson, APP Lecturer“I always thought I would be an engineer.”
-Austin Wilson, SPC“Pediatrician -- I wanted to have all those stickers, although I pass out at the sight of blood and needles!”
-Chelsey Duncan, Marketing Intern“I wanted to be a lifeguard when I grew up because I had always seen them in movies.”
-Alex Newby, Marketing Intern“When I was very young, I was fascinated with the idea of being a hair dresser. I got one of those should/head dolls where you could style the hair and loved it. By middle school, I was thinking about being a journalist or a gemologist as I loved jewelry.”
-Dana Malone, EPE 174 Lead and APP Instructor
“I wanted to be a mailman because I love getting mail!”
-Megan Beach, Assistant Director“I was planning on being a checkout person at the grocery store. I would go around the house scanning barcodes on everything!”
-Amanda Laborio, Marketing Intern“I wanted to be a waitress. I had an apron with pockets and an order tablet to take everyone’s orders!”
-Katie Avra, Outreach Coordinator“When I was young, I thought that I would either grow up to be a professional golfer or a doctor. I have since quit golf and cannot stand the sight of blood!”
-Laura McGehee, Marketing Intern“I wanted to be a female baseball player because of the movie A League of Their Own!”
-Ali Cicerchi, Program Coordinator“When I was a wee little child I wanted to be either a teenage mutant ninja turtle or batman. It’s a toss-up!”
-Ian Banta, APP Instructor“I wanted to be an elementary school teacher.”
-Bailey Grossl, Instructor“I wanted to be a teacher and a Mom. From a very young age I loved learning, school, and reading. I could be found "teaching" my cat, stuffed animals, friends, and basically anything that would sit still long enough.”
-Karin Ann Lewis, Ph.D., Assistant Provost for Undergraduate Education and Executive Director Academic Enhancement“When I was little I wanted to be a surgeon.”
-Jim Breslin, Associate Director
“I wanted to be an artist.”
-Blake Dickens, SPC“I fully believed that I could be a professional Game show contestant. First I would go on: Jeopardy, Price is Right, and The Pyramid. Then after missing a fortune I would become the host of my own games how.”
-Russell Williamson, Accounts and Website Coordinator“I thought I’d be a stock broker. Something about the excitement on the floor of the stock market really appealed to me.”
-Anna Gatewood, Assistant Director“When I was young, I always thought I would be a teacher, in one form or another. I used to gather my stuffed animals and "teach" them what I was learning in school. I even had a dry erase board!”
-Jill Page, EPE 174 Instructor and ACT Prep Coordinator
“I always disliked being asked what I wanted to be when I grew up. I always answered differently; I had no idea!”
-Beth Neiser, Assessment Coordinator
speaking of hair dresser, the best Ditchling Road Hairdressers i've been in so far is the The Hair and Lounge. They're so good at what they do.
