My favorite Vanderbilt tradition is Move In Day. The upperclassmen students do such a wonderful job of welcoming new students to campus through each house's cheers. They also do a great job of making the process relatively quick and stress free for parents. The YouTube videos online get me so excited for the start of the school year.
I wish I had more time to draw. I picked up the skill through classes in college, but do not necessarily have a great space to make a mess in.

There are so many good options, but more often than not I end up at Double Dogs in Hillsboro Village during basketball season.
James Taylor was probably the best with Tom Petty as a close second. My husband and I tend to go to concerts where we are the youngest people in the room by 20 years.
I was actually born at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. I went to junior high and high school in Kansas and moved back to Nashville as an adult. I have always thought of myself as half-Nashvillian and half-Kansan.
If I am up for a splurge, I love the Southern and Urban Grub. For a more affordable option, I love Martin's BBQ.
We have a cat named Chamberlain, but she goes by Kitty.
In a dream world probably a travel writer. In the real world, I would want to work in alumni relations.
In 20 years you will regret the things you didn't do more than the things you did.
