Lauren Reber
Major: Business Marketing

I play volleyball because... "I love the competitive atmosphere and I'm good at it."

My goal for this season is to... "Win another national championship."

My proudest accomplishment during my time at Grand Valley has been... "Winning a national championship and getting an A in accounting."

When I leave Grand Valley I will miss... "My friends, teammates and being part of the volleyball program."

In 10 years I hope to be... "Working as a platform stylist, married and to have traveled to Italy and Africa."

The people who have had the biggest influence on my life has been... "My mom and dad."

The best advice I have ever gotten was... "Give it to God because in him all things are possible."

If I played another sport it would be... "Soccer by skill, but if I was good at it, then track."

My favorite sporting event to watch is... "Football and good swimming."

People might not believe that I... "Have a world champion cyclist as a mom."
