“I am so honored and so excited,” said Parola, who is an aspiring actress. “I was speechless when I found out I had been selected. I have never done anything like this before, but I have learned to just work hard and say yes to every opportunity. I am so glad I did and I cannot wait to get to work.”

Parola applied for the role during an open audition held for Brookdale students on the college’s Lincroft campus on Sept. 12. A 2016 graduate of Brookdale, Parola is currently studying radio and television at Monmouth University, West Long Branch, while completing a special project in communications media at Brookdale.

She also serves as an on-air host for Brookdale Television and is an active member of Brookdale’s theater program, appearing in the college’s annual Summer Shakespeare Ensemble, FestiVALL student showcase and Haunted Theater, according to the press release.

MTVU, a college-focused sister channel of MTV, is viewed by more than nine million students at more than 700 college campuses across the country.
