Kenia Landa
[she/her]
I am a business administration major at Cal Poly SLO. I became interested in the arts as performing is always something that I was very fond of. The arts open doors for many unique ways for people to express themselves through more than just words and explore their imagination and creativity. I love the excitement and work that goes behind putting on a show. Not only does the arts bring me excitement, but it also brings a therapeutic experience as you can escape into a variety of worlds around you. The fact that working with the arts also means allowing others to connect with the arts feels like such a thrilling experience.

Hi! My name is Sloane and I am from Long Beach, CA. I am a freshman at Cal Poly SLO and will be majoring in Interdisciplinary Studies in the fall. I intend to use my major as a means to obtain my law degree. I have always had a love of theater and was an active participant in my high school’s musical theater program. I have performed in two shows and I am so excited to be able to perform from the other side of the stage.
