Putting Things Into Perspective
Ms. Sharrow was born and raised in Bloomington, Minn., as the youngest sibling where she “always had someone to look up to.” Through much admiration, Diana and her family spent many vacations, going resort hopping in northern Minnesota. In addition to open junctures and support from her family, Diana’s enthusiastic drive and desire enabled her to explore many interests. Ultimately, she paved an eclectic mix of destinations: from English to Journalism, Photojournalism, and finally to her true infatuation, Advertising.

Beyond Her Navigational Extremities
Journaling, drawing, biking, spending time with friends, traveling as much as possible, doing anything outside (in the summer).
Favorite Candy at RAA
“Too hard to choose! But it’s hard to resist a Reese’s peanut butter cup. Who am I kidding… it’s hard to resist any and all candy.”
The Confessional
“I never even considered advertising as a career until less than a year ago.”
Obtaining her “first and only” ticket for “Failing to Yield to a Pedestrian” – a $180 forfeit she won’t forget.
