Breanna McMurray is a senior, Digital Media Innovation major at Texas State University. Following her December 2019 graduation, she has plans to return to her hometown of Austin, Texas and get involved in the field of Digital Marketing, Social Media or Web Development. When asked if she ever planned to leave Texas after her graduation, she expressed her contentment with remaining in her hometown; however, Colorado also piqued her interest. 

Outside of class, McMurray is an active student on campus. A member of the Gamma Phi Beta sorority, she participates in many acts of service such as Girls on the Run, a 5K geared towards inspiring young girls to get fit in a positive and productive way. Other activities she enjoys in her free time include hiking, going to the movies and spending time with friends and her black lab, Attie. 

*Fun Fact: Attie, although a girl, is named after protagonist Atticus Finch from the book "To Kill a Mockingbird".

McMurray originally never considered attending Texas State because it is “just down the road” from Austin. However, touring the campus not only made her reverse her feelings about its proximity to her hometown, but it also opened her eyes to the possibility of attending because she realized the scenic views that encompassed the school.

Although she will be graduating during winter, McMurray has every intention to keep the Texas State tradition alive and take the plunge into the San Marcos River following her ceremony. She is both excited and prepared for her remaining months at Texas State University.
