Nkeba Evans introduces herself as a senior at GGC and a student ambassador who gives campus tours. She is studying exercise science and gender studies and wants to become a physical therapist. She is also interested in voice work and podcasting. Nkeba has her own mindfulness podcast called Light Mind Pod. She signed up for the course to improve her writing and digital media skills and to consistently create content for her podcast. Hey there, I hope you're doing well. And I do appreciate you for tuning into my experimental podcast. I do know that I am a little late to the party. So if you're listening to this, thank you so much. I really do appreciate it. Now, without further ado, I would like to introduce myself, talk a little bit about who I am, my career interest, and why I signed up to take the course. So, my name is Nkeba Evans. I am a senior here at GGC, and I'm also a student ambassador. If you're not familiar with what a student ambassador is, we're basically a team of students who work in the Department of Admissions. And we ultimately provide campus tours to prospective GGC students and their families. And we basically just tell them about our college experience in addition to showing them the college. And it is a pretty fun job. I get to walk around a lot, which is great for me as a fitness and wellness enthusiast. I am an exercise science major, so it kind of just makes sense. But I am studying exercise science with a minor in gender studies. I'm looking to become a physical therapist post-graduation, which means I do need to go to physical therapy school. And in addition to that, I would also like to enter a career in voice work, narration, podcasting, broadcasting, all things of that creative nature. Because I am a creative, I'm an artist, and I've always been very excited about cartoons, animation, media, movies, especially cartoons. I love cartoons, not even going to hide it. But I love seeing the creative process and seeing a team come together to make this thing that oftentimes makes people really excited, and there's different characters, and there's different stories. I just love it. And I would really love to get into physical therapy, promote health and wellness, and do that all together. That's my dream. I actually have my own podcast that I started last year in January. It's called Light Mind Pod. It's a mindfulness podcast. It's all about nurturing both our physical and our mental well-being for the sake of living the best, optimal, healthiest lives that we can live through deliberate and intentional mindfulness practices that are research-backed. And one of the primary reasons why I signed up to take this course is because it's writing, it's digital media, two things I like, and I just wanted to figure out how I could get better at creating and writing and scripting and just putting myself in front of the microphone consistently and making sure that I just, I make something. I'm really excited, and I think it'll be really good for me. So, thanks for listening, and I'll hear you in the next podcast. Bye.
