Austin Crank

I am a very outgoing individual who loves meeting new people and taking on different challenges and adventures through life. I am a current student at Southern Arkansas University studying General Studies (mixture of business, psychology, and theatre).I recently received my Associate of Arts degree in General Studies on May 6, 2016 from SAU and will be receiving my Bachelor of Arts degree in General Studies in December 2016. I plan to pursue a Masters of Counseling in Student Affairs once I have graduated with my Bachelor of Arts. I also just recently got appointed as the President for SAU's chapter of the National Society of Leadership and Success and am looking forward to a great semester as I prepare for the Fall here at SAU. My passions are theatre and photography. I absolutely love the feeling I get when I am on-stage performing a role, it is the one time I can just let go of all of my concerns in life and focus on my role in the show, helping make a great experience for the community the art is being performed in, it is truly a great experience and I highly recommend it for everyone, it can be great therapy at times and you make life-long friendships in the process! ;) Photography has been my passion since I was little! I absolutely love taking pictures, mostly of people but also of scenery (especially when I am at the beach), I actually started my own business that I would like to grow someday called "Crank Photography", I charge very little since I am just an amateur at this point but my customers stay satisfied! My get-away place is the beach and I do not get to go often but I do love it! :) My dream career would be working at a university somewhere as a Director in Student Activities, Alumni Relations, Student Life, Student Affairs, or Admissions. I like to say keep dreaming big, setting goals, and reaching them because nothing is impossible!
