Gracie Marsden<\/h2>\n

“How to be a Pig Satisfied”<\/h2>\n

The ultimate how-to for the life of comfort and security.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Gracie Marsden is a Junior studying Philosophy at BYU-Idaho. A proud Asian-American, she was born in Seattle but raised part of her life in Taiwan. She served a Mandarin-speaking mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in Vancouver, Canada. She claims to have a black belt in jiu-jitsu, but no one really believes her. Gracie began with a dream to become a veterinarian, then a writer, then a concert pianist, then a hobo. Currently her dream is to get her PhD in Ethics and to become a Professor of Philosophy. She is a huge advocate for education and women’s rights. Her hobbies include playing tennis, studying Philosophy, and sounding smarter than she actually is. She is very passionate in the journey of truth-seeking, and is trying to enjoy being proven wrong as part of her coming to truth. So far, her attempts are futile. Her greatest fears include insects of any kind, death by fire, and being called to serve in the nursery at church.<\/p>\n
