Hey, My name is Kristen Stringfellow. I have lived in Mobile all of my life. I graduated from Faith Academy in 2007. I'm majoring in Secondary Education and History at the University of South Alabama. When I was little I wanted to be a nurse, but after my first semester of college I decided that nursing wasn't for me. I always loved history and I want to share my passion with other students. So maybe one day they can love and appreciate it as much as I do.

I'm also a member of Alpha Omicron Pi. I absolutely love my sororiety and all of my sisters. I pledged AOII in the Fall of 2007. I was elected onto our Leadership Council shortly after I was initiated. Being a new girl in a sororiety is a great experience,but I'm so glad to be a "old girl." We had a very successful rush this year, and I am proud to say we have 27 new ladies. Being a big sister to a Kelsey is going to be a blast !

Outside of college I'm a typical 19 year old. I love to go to the beach, go shopping, and go out with my friends. I spend most of my free time, which I don't have a lot of, at the beach ! I love any type of water sport and going out on the boat. I recently started playing golf, disc golf, and tennis. They have became my new favorite sports. I'm not very athletic, but I love to play sports for fun ! I have a Jack Russell Terrier. His name is Ranger. I also love to take him to the park and running with me.

I have taken a lot of extra classes because I would like to finish college early, so i can go to grad school. As of right now I will be a junior in the spring, and I should finish a year early. I haven't decided where I want to go to grad school, but I'm looking into Ole Miss and Alabama. I am glad to be in this class, and I can't wait to get to know everyone !
