Dani Deibert's Introduction

I’m Dani, but they call me DaniBoy. I’m a freshman at NC State University, and I’m one of the most awkward people you’ll ever meet (in the most charming way possible). Currently, I'm in the exploratory studies program, but I intend to major in applied math and minor in Spanish. I’m originally from a small town in the mountains in New Jersey--yes, there are mountains in Jersey. Where I’m from it’s not at all like “Jersey Shore,” I swear. Regardless, I am happy to be going to school in a new place. I love Raleigh and the warmer weather down south, but I do miss the 24-hour diners and Jersey pizza (aka the best pizza). I also miss my best friends: my mom and my dog. My dog is a corgi mix, and in my opinion, she is the best dog in the world. Those who know me know I'm slightly obsessed with my dog, but it's pretty tough not to be. I have been dancing since the age of 4, and danced competitively for 10 years, up until I graduated high school. I was also on my high school dance team. Now I am a member of the NCSU Dance Company, which is a modern dance group. I am extremely passionate about dance and will continue to do so as long as my body allows me. When I’m not nerding out, dancing, or crying over my dog, I love to spend time either staying in or going out with my friends!
