Getting to know Taryn...

• My favorite non-Brandeis athletic moment is winning the berth to the Premier bracket for California PGF Nationals for the Chicago Cheetahs Coronado my senior year.

• My favorite high school class was Newspapers because it was more than just a class. I joined my school newspaper The Voice as an editor; being in that class taught me how to be a leader and hoe to efficiently manage my time. As well, the people who I worked with in class have become some of my best friends and I will never forget my advisor, Mr. Brown, who was always there to talk and teach. He gave me so many life lessons without realizing it and I will forever be thankful for his class.

• A place on my travel bucket list is Ireland

• My favorite movie of all time is Cars
