Describe your college experience

I was super excited coming into the university of Miami. However my first semester was a bit rough, I found it more difficult than I expected to adjust to the new environment and people. My second semester has been much less challenging using what I learned the previous semester. I turned things around and I am very happy!

Tip for future students

I would talk to MANY students before coming here and ask their opinions on the school and what you should know before coming here.

Favorite class

Probably Orgo 1, I am currently in it and I love the challenge and I love the feeling of succeeding in the class when my hard work and studying pays off.

Career goals

I hope to go to medical school and become an anesthesiologist.

Ideal way to spend a free night

My ideal way to spend a free night is going to dinner with friends. There is so much to do in Miami and we love trying out new restaurants.

High school or secondary school

Millennium high school New York City New York United States.

Meeting point

The U Statue
