Hello! My name is Isabella but my friends call me Beau! I’m a rising junior at CofC and really love the school! I’d be happy to show you around!

Hometown

I’m from Mount Pleasant South Carolina so I didn’t go far for school. I know a lot of great local places!

Major(s)

I am a Public Health Major with a concentration in Global health.

Minor(s)

I am minoring in Sociology.

Clubs, organizations & involvement

I’m an executive member of Cougar Excursion this year! This is a welcoming service to incoming freshman. I studied abroad in Japan last summer and have taken 4 semesters of Japanese. I am part of many clubs at CofC including sustainable fashion, comedy club, and film club. I also have a part time job at a kids store.

Describe your college experience

I love being at CofC! I took awhile for me to make some friends but during my second semester of freshman year I got the hang of it! There are a lot of great people here and plenty of things to do!

Tip for future students

It might take awhile to feel at home, but that’s ok! Your room mates don’t have to be your best friends and not everyone will get along 100% of the time.

Favorite class

I really love my major classes. Public health is really inspiring to me. I also enjoyed my first year English class. I enjoy writing and I think the prompts were fun!

Career goals

I hope to potentially get a masters degree and find my place in the healthcare field. I want to be able to help many people and research as well as write about different problems in the world.

Ideal way to spend a free night

On my free nights I love to hangout with friends! We could go on an adventure, have a quiet night in, or throw a small party. I love spending time with other people and then going to my own place to relax and decompress.

High school or secondary school

I went to Wando high school in Mount Pleasant South Carolina for a year before transferring to Lucy Beckham high school where I was part of the first graduating class.
