Describe your college experience

I have loved my time at BYU because I have found many ways to get involved. I've made friends, I feel like I've found my place, the classes are all really good.

Tip for future students

Learn how to study. Learn what works for you, be it flashcards, writing everything down, resources like Quizlet

Favorite class

I liked my Writing in Psychology class because I got to do research on topics I was passionate about and write up papers on it.

Career goals

I hope to go into Marriage and Family Therapy.

Ideal way to spend a free night

I would love to go out and do something like bowling with some friends or stay in and have a board game night. Then I'd probably come home and have a treat like ice cream and read.
