Describe your college experience

At first it was really complicated being so far from home completely alone but overtime I met wonderful friends and great professors who helped me along the way.

Tip for future students

Never be afraid to talk to your professors or ask anyone for help, everyone is more than happy to help you.

Favorite class

My favorite class has to be Government and world affairs, the dynamic the professor had was a breath of fresh air and it motivated me so much to learn more.

Career goals

I really hope to get into politics to help our communities.

Ideal way to spend a free night

Personally I love a calm night out riding around with my friends.

Favorite spot on campus

I would tell you the dinner because I love the food but I have to say next to the Riverwalk, I lost count all the times me and my friends sat there just talking or doing homework, it's very calming.
