: Cameron Lincoln, Intern
My name is Cameron Lincoln and I am an ASU Junior majoring in Justice Studies. I have always enjoyed films and used to borrow my neighbor’s video camera to make stop-motion movie reenactments with my Lego sets. I enjoy horror movies from the 1970’s and anything by Wes Anderson. I hope to either become a lawyer or a director or maybe both. I am very excited to be a part of the center and anticipate a great Spring Semester.
