Hi! I'm Dan - a rising sophomore at UMich originally from New Jersey.

Describe your college experience
College has been one of the best experiences of my life - I have made forever friends and memories at the University of Michigan. Having the freedom to pursue different paths and try new things has allowed me the opportunity of growing and expanding what I thought was in my "path."
Tip for future students
Enjoy it! Find things you love and go deep into them. Be okay with the unknown - everyone is figuring things out.
Favorite class
There are two. The first is Economics 102 (Intro to Macroeconomics) with Professor Ed Cho has changed the way I think about economics. The professor made the class fun and interesting and really explained how economics is important to our current world. The second is Movement II which is a class that teaches you how to use your body as a tool when performing on stage. This class expanded what I thought my body could do and challenged me to push myself out of my comfort zone in a safe, classroom environment.
Career goals
Something in the entertainment industry - whether that's performing, producing, casting, marketing - I'm open to new experiences! Hoping to combine both of my majors into a job behind the scenes of the entertainment industry which can handle both the creative and financial components of art.
Ideal way to spend a free night
Workout (gym/pilates), meet up with my friends at Mama Satto (best sushi spot on campus), go to my apartment, watch a movie, and eat ice cream.
High school or secondary school
Bergen County Academies (Hackensack, NJ)
Favorite spot on campus
The Walgreen Drama Center. It's always overflowing with creativity and people working on different projects. Also very cool architecturally!
