It is by far, no accident
that Shannon Farley chose the major she did. Majoring in Mass Communication
along with minoring in both Public Relations and Communication Studies has instilled
the love of writing in her heart. Her love of writing is the reason she is the
Managing Editor of The Bottom Line here at Frostburg. Shannon has expressed how
much she wants to work for a nonprofit organization and do Public Relations for
that org. She loves to help people and would love to work in a career where she
gets to do so.
Shannon has two siblings,
a brother named Eddie that lives in Oregon and a sister named Chelsea that
lives in Denver. Ever since Shannon was young her parents always had her and
siblings on the road traveling to and from different states whether it was for
a vacation or to a new home. Her parents sparked the love for traveling and she
has taken that love of traveling out of the country. I asked Shannon what her
favorite state is, and after a long thought process she revealed that was
indeed New Mexico. “I just really loved the culture, history, and the weather!”
Just last Fall Shannon studied
abroad in England and swore she never wanted to come back. Her favorite part
about being in England for the Fall was her having the ability to travel
anywhere she wanted and that it was very inexpensive. “I didn’t feel stuck!”
she exclaimed when she told me she was able to hop on a train and go anywhere
she wanted freely.
Shannon said she fell in love with England so much that a
friend of hers came from home and they back packed throughout the United
Kingdom all Winter. Through she enjoyed herself she made sure she back before her 21st
birthday.

Shannon still doesn’t know
what career path she is going to walk down or when she is going to settled
down. She just know that’s where ever she ends up she wants to write every step
of the way!
