Lion Voices: Ashley Daney

Written By: Kolby McGee

Happy Friday Lions! For this weeks #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. After 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. She also gave praise to her mother for being her biggest role model. No 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.

Ashley highlighted the constant activities and kind people at 酴圖弝け as her favorite things about being a Lion. She also mentions the great relationship she developed with her advisor. She 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 餃勳款款梗娶梗紳喧梭聆.&紳莉莽梯;

I think the most unique thing about 酴圖弝け is how friendly everyone is. I never expected every person I ran into to be so kind and caring, she said. I 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. 

Ashley also explained how she has managed her academic, social, and personal life here at 酴圖弝け. At first, it was easy because I was at a new school where I didnt 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!
