My name is Carly Jacobs and I'm from Marlboro, New Jersey. I am a sophomore here at UW-Madison and I am currently a rehab psychology major. I am on the pre-occupational therapy route in hopes to one day become an occupational therapist after attending grad school! I have two older brothers, one who attended UW-Madison 7 years ago. He met his wife (my sister-in-law) here at UW in Sociology 134 and now they are happily married for over two years now. They are having their first child who we now know is a little girl and I am more then excited to finally be an aunt! I sadly do not have any pets but love all dogs and as soon as I move out on my own I will have one. My favorite thing to do is go to the beach and since I live only 20 minutes away from it at home I was there all summer! Last year I joined the Sigma Delta Tau sorority here on campus and I love being a part of it!

I started dancing at the age of 4 and danced competitively until I graduated high school. I also attended a high school with a performing arts program where I would dance for 3 of my classes during the day. Dance was always the biggest part of my life and I still like to stay active by taking some dance classes here at UW-Madison! I also love the indoor cycling place in E Campus Mall. Cyc is definitely a great time and makes working out not so dreadful, I definitely recommend every to try it! When I am not attempting to be active I am most likely napping in my bed and/or watching Netflix.
I would have to say the most life-changing experience I have had so far is coming here to the University of Wisconsin. I came to this university by myself and did not know anyone! Ever since I came and visited my brother here I knew that this was the school for me. I always wanted a big football school where I could make new experiences happen. It was definitely the scariest and most nerve-racking thing I have ever done but I could not be more happy with how everything turned out!
When it comes to my writing, I am not the most confident. I have always been an okay writer and never thought I really had the "writing gene". The most recent writing class I took was last semester in English 100. I definitely think that it helped me with my skills and after taking the class I became more confident then I previously was. One of the most important things I want to get out of this class is to become more confident and less awkward with public speaking. I cannot wait to get to know all of you!
