Describe your college experience

Virginia Tech has provided me with so many invaluable experiences! I have made lifelong friends and pursued academic opportunities that I didn't imagine possible prior to attending VT. I have a great balance and love everything that my school has to offer!

Tip for future students

Attending Virginia Tech is the best decision I have ever made! I would advise all incoming students to get as involved as possible to make the most of their experience.

Favorite class

My favorite class has been ACIS 2115 (Financial Accounting). The class was informative, applicable, and relevant. I enjoyed learning about finances and proper bookkeeping.

Career goals

I hope to work as a cybersecurity threat intelligence officer.

Ideal way to spend a free night

Any night spent with my friends is the best! I am so glad that Virginia Tech has given me my best friends and I would give anything to spend a night handing out with them.
