Hi guys, I'm Addie! I am a junior psychology major with a busy schedule, but I wouldn't have it any other way. UGA has always been the dream, and I transfered here my sophomore year! With transferring, I am really focusing on being intentional with how I spend my time and interact with people so I get the most out of my experience here! If I'm not studying at my favorite study spot (Einstein Bagels in the library), you can find me eating lunch with my friends at the best dining halls, aka O-House and Bolton, or convincing my friends to try a new coffee shop with me somewhere downtown! There is truly no other campus like UGA where student culture blends so seamlessly with the heart of the classic city of Athens! I would love to share with you guys all the places and sights that make Athens feel like home to me and so many others! Whether you're looking for the hidden gem of a coffee shop, a crowded restraunt to people watch, or the best place to study with friends, I would love to show you what life at UGA can look like! I would love to answer any questions you might have, so feel free to ask away!

Describe your college experience

As a transfer student, I was worried about finding "my people" but everyone is in the same boat, and by putting myself out there, I really am getting back what I'm putting in.

Tip for future students

My biggest tip would be to put yourself out there and get involved. Even if it's uncomfortable, I truly believe you get out of an experience what you put into it!

Favorite class

Social work has been my favorite because we talk about relevant issues faced by our society today.

Career goals

I hope to either join or open my own private practice for clinical psychology!

Ideal way to spend a free night

I like spontaneous adventures, whether that's a chill night at Bruster's with my roomates or line dancing at Dukes and Dotties, I'm always down for anything!

High school or secondary school

Favorite spot on campus

My favorite spot is the Tate Student Center because you see people from all kinds of majors, hometowns and hobbies. You can people watch and never get tired of it here.
