Growing up Kristen Elmore dreamed of acting in front of the camera, now she dreams to be behind it.
One obstacle that most high school or college students come to is deciding on a career choice.
Kristen Elmore, a sophomore broadcasting major, grew up wanting to be an actress going from one casting call to another. Originally from a small old area of Columbia, SC she had high hopes to become famous. "My mom would roll my hair in big hot rollers, use half a can of hairspray and put me in a dress," Elmore said.
In high school Elmore was editor-in-chief of the Cardinal Newman newspaper which influenced her to decide on print journalism as her major. After realizing the lack of pay writers make working for newspapers she changed to broadcasting. She feels she has made an accomplishment as a member of the Video Production Club.
Now as a student in the Mass Communications department she plans to get her degree in broadcasting and become a television and film producer. Elmore said she figured news broadcasting would be more respected than acting. Elmore says even with a new career path, she will still live in L.A. one day.
