 PERSONAL

Zoey enjoys spending time with friends and family, reading, movies, shoes, and being creative.  Her mother is Nancy Schaefer.  She enjoys country music and hip-hop or R&B and dessert is her favorite meal of the day.  She was a member of the National Honor Society and was on the honor roll all four years of high school.

Zoey on UW: "I started going on college trips earlier than most kids. It was really overwhelming because I didn’t know what I wanted to major in, or what I was looking for in a college. Stepping onto the U-Dub campus for the first time, I knew this is where I would attend school. Everything just felt right. My team has become my second family, and I love the relationships and opportunities created by being a part of the UW community. Go Purple, Be Gold…GO HUSKIES!"
