Hi! I am from New Jersey and currently attend Florida State where I am seeking a Bachelor's in Elementary Education and a Masters in Curriculum Instruction through the BS​/​MS pathway program. I love going on walks, the beach, and reading.

Describe your college experience

Coming from New Jersey to Florida was an adjustment, but it has been the best decision. FSU is extremely welcoming and has so many great outreach programs which I was able to meet people through. I love the education program, and it is very convenient to be able to get both a master's and bachelor's in 5 years. Professors are extremely understanding and knowledgable and once you establish a routine, the transition becomes not so bad.

Tip for future students

Say yes to everything! Always be open to new experiences and putting yourself out there.

Favorite class

My favorite class has been MAE 4326: How Children Learn Math. This is because during this class, we put together a math fair for the students and it was such a great experience! We made up a pizza-themed place value game and the students enjoyed it so much.

Career goals

After college, I hope to be a second or third grade teacher and then eventually a principal.

Ideal way to spend a free night

The ideal way to spend a free night would be to try eating at a new restaurant with friends or family.
