Describe your college experience
I have absolutely loved Tufts despite not necessarily fitting the stereotype I feel is often put on the University. There truly is a place for everyone at this University, which really makes the experience so much more fun. I was fortunately admitted to many competitive universities my senior year, many of which rank higher than Tufts, and looking back on my three years, I would not change a single thing.

Not sure yet. I have had internships in Private Markets and Foreign Policy. I am hoping to find a role that brings them together!
