From D1 Athlete to Student Leader: My BC Journey

I am a driven, outgoing, and hardworking student who loves meeting new people and getting involved on campus. As a Division I skier, SAAC President, and student tour guide, I enjoy building connections, taking on leadership opportunities, and representing the Boston College community. Whether I’m in the classroom, at an internship, or showing prospective students around campus, I strive to make a positive impact while continuing to learn and grow.

Describe your college experience

My transition to Boston College was incredibly smooth, and I have loved every minute of my experience. Between competing as a Division I athlete, getting involved in leadership opportunities, and meeting people from so many different backgrounds, I’ve found an amazing community. BC has pushed me academically, personally, and professionally, and I truly feel like I’ve made the most of my time here.

Tip for future students

Say yes to as many opportunities as you can during your first year. Whether it’s joining clubs, introducing yourself to professors, attending networking events, or simply meeting new people, those experiences often lead to friendships and opportunities you never expected. College goes by quickly, so don’t be afraid to put yourself out there.

Career goals

After college, I hope to build a career in the AI and technology industry, ideally in a role that combines business strategy and finance. Long term, I am also interested in attending law school, as I enjoy solving complex problems and advocating for others. I’m excited to explore opportunities that allow me to work at the intersection of technology, business, and innovation.

Ideal way to spend a free night

My ideal free night is grabbing dinner with friends somewhere in Boston and exploring the city together. Whether we’re trying a new restaurant, walking around the city, or just catching up, I love spending time with the people around me.

High school or secondary school

Green Mountain Valley School

Favorite spot on campus

The Gasson Quad is my favorite place on campus because it really captures the Boston College community. On a nice day, everyone is outside studying, relaxing, or catching up with friends, and it’s always a place where I run into people I know. It reminds me how connected and welcoming the BC community is.

Meeting point
