Jaime is a third-year journalism student and a junior at the Academy. This year in journalism, she hopes to learn how to connect with her peers and tell their stories. She spends her free time sleeping or playing video games with her friends. A random fact about her is that she once slept on the U.S.S. Missouri at Pearl Harbor for a field trip.
