=== Hi, my name’s Tommy. I am a transfer student and senior at Boise State University, earning a degree in sociology and a innovate in my community. My current interests include student affairs and social change, as these fields pertain to academic success and involvement, cultivating a purpose for learning and influencing the way humans shape the world. The ultimate goal? To operate a speakeasy bar and restaurant. In the meantime, I’ll be working towards a graduate school. Feel free to reach out to me with ideas about our campus community and let’s get to work! I’m always looking for coffee drinkers who want to change the world one sip at a time. ===
