Hello! I am a rising senior at Tufts University majoring in Psychology with a minor in Child Study and Human Development. I am heavily involved on campus as captain of ENVY Ladies Step Team, the social media manager of the Tufts African American Foundations and Roots Organization, a Tufts Africana Center Intern, and a Orientation Leader for the class of 2030, and a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.. I have enjoyed my time at Tufts so far and would love to share my experience with students interested in the school!

Describe your college experience

As an incoming freshman, I was anxious about moving to a new state and wasn't sure where I would fit in on campus. After move in day, I immediately realized that Tufts was a great place to make new friends, try new things, and be passionate about different areas of study. As a rising senior, I can safely say that I have gotten the most out of my time at Tufts that I could possibly get. The school has pushed me out of my comfort zone and encouraged me to be the best I can be.

Tip for future students

There are a lot of open events hosted by different clubs and organization on campus which is the best way to meet new people with similar interest to you. Pre-orientation programs are also an excellent way to meet some new people before the start of your first semester, and often times students who did a Pre-O together stay friends throughout their time at Tufts.

Favorite class

As a psychology student, my favorite class has been Psychiatric Evaluation and Treatment because it is one of the courses that prepares you for professional work after University. Like many other psychology courses at Tufts, the course references real life cases, mental health disorders, and treatment techniques. I highly recommend it to those with any interest in psychology!

Career goals

I hope to get my Masters in Counseling or Social Work before working as a therapist.

Ideal way to spend a free night

Most of my free nights are spent in my dorm room with my friends. When I need to get work done, I enjoy going to Tisch or the JCC. Tufts also has many activities like bingo that are available on some nights which is always a great way to spend a free night after classes.
