Meliah Dirksen

Major/Minor: Hospitality Management
Post-Graduation Goals: My goal is to manage the Disneyland Resort hotel.
Why did you choose GCU? I chose GCU because of the atmosphere on campus; it has such a great community of students who share the same love of Christ and of course, the lopes.
When you are not cheering, where can you be found? When not cheering, I can be found relaxing in my apartment or reading a book.
Who is the most influential person in your life? My mom. She is the hardest working and most self-less person I know.
What is one piece of advice you would give someone who dreams of becoming a GCU Cheerleader? My best advice would be to attend clinics and to never stop working hard.
Fun Fact: I love all things Harry Potter.
Favorite Bible Verse or Quote: “For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” 2 Timothy 1:7
