Describe your college experience
I feel as though my world opened up so much coming to college. I was unaware of how many opportunities I would have access to, along with the incredible people I have met.
Tip for future students
It is everyone's first time at college too! it is intimidating to enter an environment where it can feel as though everyone has their life figured out but they do not!
Favorite class
MC 380/Social Policy had been my favorite class as it opened my eyes to the potential for social policy/governance to support populations and social groups.
Career goals
I hope to teach secondary english and social studies both domestically and internationally before working towards a masters in Higher Education Admin/Student Affairs.
Ideal way to spend a free night
An ideal free night would include dinner with friends, an adventure, and an outdoor hangout to end the night.
High school or secondary school
Skyline High School
Favorite spot on campus
I love the collection of picnic tables along the river near the Botanical Garden! It is such a peaceful and scenic place to study and hangout.
