About Me
Hi! My name is Kate Blackburn and I’m excited for my journey at OSU! I am from Chagrin Falls, Ohio where I attended Kenston High School. I was involved in various activities in high school and tried different classes. Through this I discovered some things I was interested in.
I am currently undecided in my major, but as of right now I feel I will be heading toward a business path. In high school some of my favorite courses were Statistics, French, and International Business. I also enjoyed Chorus, but that was more like a hobby to me. Discovering I enjoyed these subjects has helped me to narrow down a path I may pursue in the future. During high school I also held many leadership roles in various clubs, and I hope to engage myself in some similar activities while I’m here. I was also active in the performing arts scene, and although I am not sure if I plan to continue that career it will always be an interest of mine. My professional goals following graduation are yet to be determined. I hope I will find my passion during my time here at Ohio State. Once I discover my major my goals will be a lot clearer.
I hope I can continue to involve myself in the upcoming years here at OSU. I aspire to learn and grow as a person while I’m here. I hope to find my passion and begging my journey in pursuing them. I cannot wait to see what I will encounter!
