Blue-blooded BYU graduate student with insider housing insights
Hey there! My name's Josh, I am just starting my first year of graduate school in the business school. I also did my undergraduate at BYU in music. I LOVE my school, though I know it's not for everyone. I'm committed to helping you understand the best parts of BYU and to assess if you're a good fit here. I'm prepared to give you the inside scoop on housing, study abroads, classes, student life, and everything inbetween! Bring all your questions and I'll get you all set for your first year. I'm a big fan of BYU sports, especially football! You'll catch me at every game! I also love going to performances and the myriad student activities on campus. When I'm not grinding away at my studies, I love to dive into my far-too-big collection of board games with my friends. I love hiking, boating, skiing, and running.

Describe your college experience
I was an RA my freshman and sophomore years so I know the on campus housing situation like the back of my hand. I have looked into just about every major and have friends in just about every major. I firmly believe that if you are dedicated, involved, and balanced, your college experience will be incredible!
