Describe your college experience

My first experience after arriving on campus was during Dawg Daze, which was one of the most fun times of my life! I have met a ton of amazing people on campus, the facilities are amazing, have gotten involved with my community in a ton of ways, and there's many different pathways to pursue what you love.

Tip for future students

I would definitely recommend pursuing research opportunities and​/​or getting involved with clubs & organizations that align with your interests. I would also emphasize meeting and talking to a lot of people, and just being kind. Many people are great friends, but also very willing to be a connection for you as well.

Favorite class

So far, my favorite class has been ENTRE 370, Introduction to Entrepreneurship. The class brings a wide variety of experts in their fields whose experience and impact on our world is immense. In addition, there is also a group project where you simulate how your "product" would perform in today's market.

Career goals

After college, I hope to work in BigLaw for a couple of years. I'm not entirely too sure what type of law I want to do yet, and will take a gap year to gain experience.

Ideal way to spend a free night

Hanging out with friends, driving around, and exploring new places.
