I am a biochemistry student at UD who is dedicated in academics but still finds time to make the best of my college experience. I am on the Triathlon club and love to run all over the Newark area. I know all the best study spots, walking trails, and hidden gems of Newark. I also like to creative write and play video games in my spare time.

Describe your college experience

My college experience has been quite interesting. I've transferred schools twice and switched majors once. I've had both very positive and very stressful experiences. Adjusting to college level class work wasn't so bad since freshman classes ease into the difficulty, but figuring out how to properly utilize my time was the biggest adjustment.

Tip for future students

The best tip I have is to make sure you don't over load your classes to make sure your college experience is manageable and fun.

Favorite class

My favorite class was study of film, the animated cartoon. It was a really well taught course that delved into the art and significance of animation, which I am a bit of a nerd for.

Career goals

I hope to attend grad school and pursue a Phd in immunology. Then find a career researching in the medical field.

Ideal way to spend a free night

My ideal way to spend a free night is playing boardgames with my friends or going for a walk around campus while I listen to music.

High school or secondary school

I attended Caesar Rodney Highschool in Camden Delaware.

Previous college

I started out at Lehigh University in Bethlehem Pennsylvania and transferred to Delaware Technical College after my first year. Then I transferred to the University of Delaware the year after that.

Favorite spot on campus

My favorite place on campus is the bottom of the south green, but specifically at night it is quiet, peaceful, and the best place to relax.
