You Can Find My Initials on the Back of a Volkswagen

My name is Veronica Wicks, and that is me in the red! I recently just transferred to Texas Tech University from the University of Texas at San Antonio. I am a Corporate- Organizational Communication Studies Major with a Minor in Business. I am currently a Junior and I hope to pursue a career in Health Care Administration. I do not want to get too serious, although my studies and academic success are very important to me. I promise, I’m fun too! 

I think most of my best friends would describe me as talkative and hilarious. I love to make conversations with strangers and get a giggle out of everyone. I am open and honest and I am a firm believer that the only way to get to know someone truly, is to know what they love. So, here it goes.

I love my faith, family, and friends. I have two brothers and one sister, and I am an aunt of 7 awesome kids! I am originally from New Braunfels, Texas; I grew up right down the street from the Comal River and the well-known waterpark, Schlitterbahn. So, typically, you can find me by the water. 

I have a thing for trying many different ethnic foods, but I always end up wanting Chinese (egg drop soup, a crab rangoon, and something spicy). The only way to study is with a Chai Tea Latte and a piece of coffee cake. I love food, as you can tell.

I have always been a runner. Since, 7^th grade I have been putting some serious miles on my tennis shoes, and my life-long dream is to run a full marathon. Hopefully, I am able to find the time to run one before I graduate.

I work hard for what I want, and I expect nothing less than my very best effort. I am excited to have the opportunity to spend a semester with all of you, learning and getting a feel for what comes along with being a true Red Raider!
