Lauren's Life


My name is Lauren Petrovich and I am a sophomore at the ASU Tempe campus. I love meeting new poeple and being involved, which is why I am part of Greek Life here on campus. Traveling is something that I love to do, and I have been to Europe a few times, Central America, and Australia. I enjoy being in a different culture and having the opportunity to learn about how other people live. After college, I would love to be able to travel the world.




I love being around children and helping them as much as possible, and because of this, I want to one day be an occupational therapist. I had a friend in high school who was involved in a car accident which left her in a coma for 8 weeks and living in a rehabilitation institute for about 3 months, and having the chance to see her progress after going to occupational therapy with her every week inspired me to want to one day help other kids have a second chance of living a regular life after an unfortunate incident. This is what keeps me going when I am struggling through a hard class.





On a higher note, one of my favorite things to do is hang out with my friends. I have the best support group in my friends and I don't know what I would do without them. I have the wonderful opportunity of getting to live with many of them this year, and so far it has been the best experience I could ask for. I am so lucky to have such a great group of people in my life and could not ask for anything else. We do almost everything together, and I am loving every minute of college because of my great friends.
