Esther Seville is a Journalism major currently working on her bachelors degree. She has lived in Wyoming her whole life but has dreams of living somewhere warmer along the east coast. She has been going to the University of Wyoming for the past three years and is excited to spend her last year in Laramie as well. She has loved her experiences at Wyoming Pubic Radio so far, and is looking forward to spending the rest of the summer interning for them.
