Meet the freshmen: Savannah Mora

August 27, 2024 by Brylie Mahar

With talents abounding, Savannah Mora hopes to utilize her skills as she pursues a degree in communication disorders to become a speech-language pathologist. 

“My interesting talents are dance, the ability to play the cello and a little bit of the bass guitar, and … I used to teach kids how to dance,” she said.

In her field, Mora can incorporate these talents into therapy sessions with her clients. Utilizing a clinician’s talents during a session is said to be a great way to improve the quality of the session in a way that is effective for both the client and the clinician. 

“Dance is such a great way to express everything that you can’t say out loud,” she said. “If I did use dance in this field, I would use it as an exercise.”

As Mora starts her journey here at ACU, she said she is excited to help people and teach in a way that makes a difference. She said the sense of community is what brought her to start this next chapter as a wildcat. 

“What inspired me to choose ACU was probably the sense of community and the idea that I could go to a school with people that share the same beliefs,” she said. “I’ve always wanted to have more Christian friends and be in a place where talking about God is a norm.”

"Ending my college education early was always the plan for me, but the things that I have been able to see, experience and examine about ACU’s community were not. I have found immense growth in ACU over the past three and a half years, but ACU still has a long road to climb if it wants to keep catering to students as the world changes around them."
