Elizabeth also serves as the president of the John Newman Association, secretary for Millersville’s Student Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE) chapter, and is a member of the Broadcast Education Association. “Millersville’s media clubs specifically have made my experience here one to remember,” she says. “I love what I do outside the classroom as I am surrounded and supported by some amazing people.”<br /> <br /> Elizabeth’s favorite course so far has been Topics: Cinema Production, taught by Professor James Machado. “The week-long winter course is a masterclass in basic filmmaking with time to experiment and have fun, and I loved every second of it,” she shares.<br /> <br /> Elizabeth’s favorite spot on campus is the Bassler Hall Greenroom, where she has completed countless homework assignments, written scripts, shared lunches, watched movies, laughed, cried, and made some of her fondest memories.<br /> <br /> In her free time, Elizabeth loves to bake and travel. “Baking is a huge part of my family,” she says. “I also worked in a bakery for a few years.” Her favorite baked goods to make include cakes, iced cookies, baklava, and anything involving a blow torch. <br /> <br /> Elizabeth currently works for Kenvue, a consumer healthcare company that manufactures Listerine, Tylenol, Neutrogena, and more. Her role there includes running the Lititz site’s communications department. After graduation, Elizabeth intends to continue her work with Kenvue.<br /> <br /> Elizabeth’s favorite quote comes from Harry S. Truman: "It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit."
