Hello! My name is Ashleigh Gill and I am a freshman in my second semester at The University of Oklahoma. I'm from a small town called Elk City, OK. Go Elks!
OU has always been the college that I wanted to go to because the campus is beautiful and old, and now that I'm here, I couldn't be more grateful. When I got to the university, I was majoring in meteorology because when I was growing up, I loved learning about how the weather works- it just fascinated me. Sadly, I am not good at math, so I changed my major to Creative Media Production. I love creating videos that my friends enjoy, but what got me started was my family. I would always make little home movies for them and I loved seeing the smiles grow on their faces. Looking back, they weren't very good, but we all have to start somewhere, right? After I graduate, I will hopefully have a job in the media industry, pursuing what I love. I am only getting started with my CMP journey, but I am ready to see what the future holds.
When I become more experienced, I would love to start a Youtube channel. Production, filming, and photography have always been an interest of mine, and it provides a creative outlet for anyone and everyone who enjoys media. In my free time, I spend time with my friends that I met at OU, reading, or watching my favorite shows online. Everyone that I have met in the community around me is so welcoming and kind. I love writing, so I am very excited about the chance to write for the Odyssey. I look forward to sharing my writing with you each week!
