First For Women - Wesleyan

Name: Anna Kaye Burgher, class of 2008

Majors: Advertising/Marketing Communication and Communications

Background: Technically, "home" for Anna Kay is Kingston, Jamaica, though she moved to New York at the age of 15 and now travels back and forth between the two cities. When she was 12, she joined a professional dance performance arts group specializing in ballet, jazz, African, hip-hop and other modern dances. She traveled with the group to Trinidad, Costa Rica, St. Lucia and California.

Since graduating from Wesleyan: After graduating from Wesleyan, Anna Kaye moved back to New York where she plans to attend law school and pursue a career in entertainment law. "I want to establish my own entertainment law firm, a public relations/marketing/event-planning company, a self-esteem magazine for young minority females and a performing arts group for inner-city youth," she said.
