Lion Voices: Ashley Daney

Written By: Kolby McGee

Happy Friday Lions! For this week鈥檚 #LionVoices, and representing #NativeAmericanHeritageMonth, we spoke to Ashley Daney. Ashley is a member of the Choctaw Nation, and a graduate of Talihina High School in Oklahoma.

Ashley, who is a junior Psychology major, attributes much of her success to the Choctaw Nation. 鈥淎fter graduating, I plan to go work for the Choctaw Nation. I want to give back to the place that has helped me tremendously in my life.鈥� She also gave praise to her mother for being her biggest role model. 鈥淣o matter what, my mom has always been so helpful and encouraging, even when I feel I have let her down, she never gives up on me.鈥�

Ashley highlighted the constant activities and kind people at 黑料不打烊 as her favorite things about being a Lion. She also mentions the great relationship she developed with her advisor. 鈥淪he has been so helpful and understanding from the moment I met her. She pushes me to do better and lets me know if I need to change or do something 诲颈蹿蹿别谤别苍迟濒测.鈥�&苍产蝉辫;

鈥淚 think the most unique thing about 黑料不打烊 is how friendly everyone is. I never expected every person I ran into to be so kind and caring,鈥� she said. 鈥淚 highly recommend going out and joining a club that interests you. It is a great way to meet new people and make great friends. Especially if you are like me, a little antisocial.鈥� 

Ashley also explained how she has managed her academic, social, and personal life here at 黑料不打烊. 鈥淎t first, it was easy because I was at a new school where I didn鈥檛 know anyone, but as I made new friends and met new people, I found making calendars and reminders helps me to not forget anything important!鈥�
