Roshanna Barrows

Optimistic, Compassionate, a go-getter, intelligent, witty, are a few words that describe Roshanna Barrows. I was born and raised in Brooklyn New York. Growing up as the only child I’ve always looked at writing as my refuge which was the only way of expressing my thoughts. Now, as a young woman I still look at writing as a place of shelter but I also know it is imperative to voice my beliefs. I am currently a junior at Penn State University in the College of Communications with a major in Broadcast Journalism and a minor in Spanish. My objective for the near future is to attend Grad School at Columbia School of Journalism or Seton Hall University to focus on Media studies. After Graduate School I intend to work for a major publication company or an elite television network fulfilling my dream. My current job entails working hard in school and maintaining my overall GPA of a 3.5. The rate that I’m moving and my positive approach I know I’m destined to be a star.

When I have my spare time, I love to go shopping, work out, read, spend time with my friends and family, and also work! I worked at Hollister clothing store in Pittsburgh, and I also worked at Boston Market, which definitely wasn't fun!

So far I absolutely love Penn State! Aside from COMRadio, I am also involved in ITP, training to become a certified fitness instructor, im rushing a sororirty, interested in joining THON, and also Blue and White Society.

For my first two years at penn state I attended the Lehigh Valley Campus where I was a Lion Ambassador, involved with SGA, and I was one of two THON 2006 Co-Chairs. I've got a knack for doodling while attempting to listen in class. I always listen to music, because I can't live without it. My favorite band is A Perfect Circle and my favorite singer is Imogen Heap. Name any movie and I'm sure I can tell you whos in it and what its about. I also watch a little too much TV. My favorite TV show is "Grey's Anatomy" and my favorite movie is "Garden State," among others. Biggest accomplishment so far is getting in to college with the SAT scores that I got. Besides that, my other big accomplishment is having a movie review of mine published in an Australian newspaper. When I was about 14/15 I began writing movie reviews for an entertainment news site based out of Australia. Following that, I wrote for various other websites.

Fine I'll add more. I'm one of (and the unglier) news director here at ComRadio. Christi Harrison is the other, prettier news director. I'm going to be a super senior next year because, well i just dont want to get out in the real world. I've done a little time for CBS and a few other stations. Sometimes I help out around ComRadio. I've backpacked across europe (best idea ever) and live 10 minuets from a beach. So i love my boat and love fishing and love you...yes you. And thoes glasses i'm wearing.
